A method for performing retrospective magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) artifact correction includes receiving, as input, an MRI image having at least one artifact; using a trained adversarial network for performing retrospective artifact correction on the MRI image, wherein the trained adversarial network is trained using unpaired artifact-free MRI images and artifact-containing MRI images; and outputting, by the trained adversarial network, a derivative MRI image related to the input, wherein the at least one artifact is corrected in the derivative MRI image.
