Positron emission tomography (PET) utilizes radiotracers like [F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) to measure brain activity in health and disease. Performing behavioral tasks between the FDG injection and the PET scan allows the FDG signal to reflect task-re...
OBJECTIVES: In this study, we propose an interpretable deep learning radiomics (IDLR) model based on [F]FDG PET images to diagnose the clinical spectrum of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and predict the progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to A...
INTRODUCTION: Multiplexed PET imaging revolutionized clinical decision-making by simultaneously capturing various radiotracer data in a single scan, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and patient comfort. Through a transformer-based deep learning, this st...
OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to develop an integrated segmentation-free deep learning (DL) framework to predict multiple aspects of radiotherapy outcome in pharyngeal cancer patients by analyzing pretreatment 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Misregistration artifacts between the PET and attenuation correction CT (CTAC) exams can degrade image quality and cause diagnostic errors. Deep learning (DL)-warped elastic registration methods have been proposed to improve...

BACKGROUND: Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) with suppression of myocardial glucose utilization plays a pivotal role in diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis. Reorientation of images to match perfusion datasets and myocardial segmen...
The standard method for identifying active Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) is [F]-Fluorodeoxyglucose ([F]-FDG) PET/CT imaging, which is costly and exposes patients to radiation, making it impractical for population studies. These issues can be addressed w...

PURPOSE: The objective of this study is to assess the prognostic efficacy of F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT) parameters in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) and identify the best machine learning (M...
. Approximately 57% of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients face a 20% risk of brain metastases (BMs). The delivery of drugs to the central nervous system is challenging because of the blood-brain barrier, leading to a relatively poor prognosi...
OBJECTIVES: To develop and identify machine learning (ML) models using pretreatment 2-deoxy-2-[F]fluoro-D-glucose ([F]-FDG)-positron emission tomography (PET)-based radiomic features to differentiate benign from malignant parotid gland diseases (PGDs...
