Electrical properties (EPs) are expected as biomarkers for early cancer detection. Magnetic resonance electrical properties tomography (MREPT) is a technique to non-invasively estimate the EPs of tissues from MRI measurements. While noise sensitivity and artifact problems of MREPT are being solved progressively through recent efforts, the loss of tissue contrast emerges as an obstacle to the clinical applications of MREPT. To solve the problem, we propose a reconstruction error compensation neural network scheme (REC-NN) for a typical analytic MREPT method, Stab-EPT. Two NN structures: one with only ResNet blocks, and the other hybridizing ResNet blocks with an encoder-decoder structure. Results of experiments with digital brain phantoms show that, compared with Stab-EPT, and conventional NN based reconstruction, REC-NN improves both reconstruction accuracy and tissue contrast. It is found that, the encoder-decoder structure could improve the compensation accuracy of EPs in homogeneous region but showed worse reconstruction than only ResNet structure for tumorous tissues unseen in the training samples. Future research is required to address overcompensation problems, optimization of NN structure and application to clinical data.
