Approximately 15% of patients suspected of having Parkinson's disease (PD) present dopamine active transporter (DaT) scans without evidence of dopaminergic deficits (SWEDD), most of which will never develop PD. Leveraging Movement Disorders Society U...
OBJECTIVE: Functional imaging using the dopamine transporter (DAT) as a biomarker has proven effective in assessing dopaminergic neuron degeneration in the striatum. In assessing the neuron degeneration, visual and semiquantitative methods are used t...

PURPOSE: Deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) hold promise for assisting the interpretation of dopamine transporter (DAT)-SPECT. For improved communication of uncertainty to the user it is crucial to reliably discriminate certain from inconclusiv...
BACKGROUND: The sophisticated behavioral and cognitive repertoires of non-human primates (NHPs) make them suitable subjects for studies involving cocaine self-administration (SA) schedules. However, ethical considerations, adherence to the 3Rs princi...

We propose strongly unrealistic data augmentation to improve the robustness of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for automatic classification of dopamine transporter SPECT against the variability between sites and between cameras. A CNN was train...
OBJECTIVE: Parkinson's disease (PD) is an age-related neurodegenerative condition characterized mostly by motor symptoms. Although a wide range of non-motor symptoms (NMS) are frequently experienced by PD patients. One of the important and common NMS...
