Clinical Value of Deep Learning Reconstruction Technology in Ankle MRI

Clinical Value of Deep Learning Reconstruction Technology in Ankle MRI

By enrolling patients who underwent ankle MR(Magnetic Resonance) examinations at our center and using randomized allocation, the patients were divided into a study group and a control group. The study group underwent scanning using AI-based(Artificial Intelligence-based) ankle MRI sequences, while the control group was scanned using non-AI ankle MRI sequences.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Patients undergoing ankle MRI at Wuhan Union Hospital from August 2025 to August 2026;
2. Aged > 18 years old;
3. Patients who agree to participate in the study and provide signed informed consent;
4. Presence of a clear history of ankle trauma and related symptoms requiring MRI for diagnosis or evaluation.

Exclusion Criteria:

1 .Patients with MR examination contraindications (e.g., implanted metal devices or severe claustrophobia); 2. Patients with prior ankle surgery; 3. Patients who failed to complete MR examination or whose image quality was insufficient for diagnostic purposes.
