Systems and methods for generating thin image slices from thick image slices

A system for generating high resolution images from low resolution images, the system comprising:

• an image acquisition unit configured to acquire a first image of a feature of interest at a first resolution;
• a computing system configured to implement a deep learning system, wherein the deep learning system is configured to receive the first image of the feature of interest and, perform a convolution on the first image, perform a non-linear activation function on the first image, repeat the convolution and non-linear activation function, generate a residual based on the convolution, and sum the residual and the first image to generate a second image of the feature of interest at a second resolution, wherein the second resolution is higher than the first resolution;
• and
• a display configured to display the second image of the feature of interest.
