Automated quantification of brain PET in PET/CT using deep learning-based CT-to-MR translation: a feasibility study.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
PURPOSE: Quantitative analysis of PET images in brain PET/CT relies on MRI-derived regions of interest (ROIs). However, the pairs of PET/CT and MR images are not always available, and their alignment is challenging if their acquisition times differ c...

Predicting malignant risk of ground-glass nodules using convolutional neural networks based on dual-time-point F-FDG PET/CT.

Cancer imaging : the official publication of the International Cancer Imaging Society
BACKGROUND: Accurately predicting the malignant risk of ground-glass nodules (GGOs) is crucial for precise treatment planning. This study aims to utilize convolutional neural networks based on dual-time-point F-FDG PET/CT to predict the malignant ris...

Comparative analysis of intestinal tumor segmentation in PET CT scans using organ based and whole body deep learning.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: 18-Fluoro-deoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG-PET/CT) is a valuable imaging tool widely used in the management of cancer patients. Deep learning models excel at segmenting highly metabolic tumors but face ch...

Eliminating the second CT scan of dual-tracer total-body PET/CT via deep learning-based image synthesis and registration.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
PURPOSE: This study aims to develop and validate a deep learning framework designed to eliminate the second CT scan of dual-tracer total-body PET/CT imaging.

Optimizing MR-based attenuation correction in hybrid PET/MR using deep learning: validation with a flatbed insert and consistent patient positioning.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
PURPOSE: To address the challenges of verifying MR-based attenuation correction (MRAC) in PET/MR due to CT positional mismatches and alignment issues, this study utilized a flatbed insert and arms-down positioning during PET/CT scans to achieve preci...

Deep Learning-Based Precontrast CT Parcellation for MRI-Free Brain Amyloid PET Quantification.

Clinical nuclear medicine
PURPOSE: This study aimed to develop a deep learning (DL) model for brain region parcellation using CT data from PET/CT scans to enable accurate amyloid quantification in 18 F-FBB PET/CT without relying on high-resolution MRI.

Deep Learning-Powered CT-Less Multitracer Organ Segmentation From PET Images: A Solution for Unreliable CT Segmentation in PET/CT Imaging.

Clinical nuclear medicine
PURPOSE: The common approach for organ segmentation in hybrid imaging relies on coregistered CT (CTAC) images. This method, however, presents several limitations in real clinical workflows where mismatch between PET and CT images are very common. Mor...

PSMA PET/CT based multimodal deep learning model for accurate prediction of pelvic lymph-node metastases in prostate cancer patients identified as candidates for extended pelvic lymph node dissection by preoperative nomograms.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
PURPOSE: To develop and validate a prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT based multimodal deep learning model for predicting pathological lymph node invasion (LNI) in prostate cancer (PCa) patients identified as candidates for extended pel...
