Overview

This project focuses on the robust estimation of T2 distributions from quantitative T2-weighted MRI data using deep learning approaches described in the P2T2 and MIML papers. The repository includes scripts for simulating Echo Planar Graphs (EPGs) and training a model to reconstruct T2 distributions.

Prerequisites

Before running the simulations and the model, ensure you have the following installed:

• Python 3.10
• NumPy
• PyTorch
• Any other dependencies listed in requirements.txt

Install the required packages using:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Data Simulation
