    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for performing a scan of a subject utilizing a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system includes initiating, via a processor, a prescan of the subject by an MRI scanner of the MRI system without a priori knowledge as to whether the subject has a metal implant. The computer-implemented method also includes executing, via the processor, a metal detection algorithm during a prescan entry point of the prescan to detect whether the metal implant is present in the subject. The computer-implemented method further includes determining, via the processor, to proceed with a calibration scan and the scan utilizing predetermined scan parameters when no metal implant is detected in the subject. The computer-implemented method even further includes switching, via the processor, into a metal implant scan mode when one or more metal implants are detected in the subject.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of automatically labeling medical images is provided. The method includes clustering training images and training labels into clusters, each cluster including a representative template having a representative image and a representative label. The method also includes training a neural network model with a training dataset that includes the training images and the training labels, and target outputs of the neural network model are labels of the medical images. The method further includes generating a suboptimal label corresponding to an unlabeled test image using the trained neural network model, and generating an optimal label corresponding to the unlabeled test image using the suboptimal label and representative templates. In addition, the method includes updating the training dataset using the test image and the optimal label, retraining the neural network model, generating a label of an unlabeled image using the retrained neural network model, and outputting the generated label.
