However, analysis of high-density regions with significant overlaps among the microbubble point spread responses yields high localization errors, constraining the technique to low-concentration conditions. As such, long acquisition times are required to sufficiently cover the vascular bed. In this work, we present a fast and precise method for obtaining super-resolution vascular images from high-density contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging data. This method, which we term Deep Ultrasound Localization Microscopy (Deep-ULM), exploits modern deep learning strategies and employs a convolutional neural network to perform localization microscopy in dense scenarios, learning the nonlinear image-domain implications of overlapping RF signals originating from such sets of closely spaced microbubbles. Deep-ULM is trained effectively using realistic on-line synthesized data, enabling robust inference in-vivo under a wide variety of imaging conditions. We show that deep learning attains super-resolution with challenging contrast-agent densities, both in-silico as well as in-vivo. Deep-ULM is suitable for real-time applications, resolving about 70 high-resolution patches ( 128\u00d7128 pixels) per second on a standard PC. Exploiting GPU computation, this number increases to 1250 patches per second.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong><\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/33180723\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Super-Resolution Ultrasound Localization Microscopy Through Deep Learning.\u00a0<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row type=&#8221;full_width_background&#8221; full_screen_row_position=&#8221;middle&#8221; column_margin=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_tablet=&#8221;default&#8221; column_direction_phone=&#8221;default&#8221; scene_position=&#8221;center&#8221; top_padding=&#8221;30&#8243; bottom_padding=&#8221;30&#8243;&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":761,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34,55],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-309","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-publications","8":"category-year-2021"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=309"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":665,"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/309\/revisions\/665"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/761"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=309"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=309"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/customedev.testdevlink.net\/Khaing_Lab\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=309"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
