Manual segmentation poses a time-consuming challenge for disease quantification, therapy evaluation, treatment planning, and outcome prediction. Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) hold promise in accurately identifying tumor locations and boundarie...
Research on different machine learning (ML) has become incredibly popular during the past few decades. However, for some researchers not familiar with statistics, it might be difficult to understand how to evaluate the performance of ML models and co...
Lung cancer is one of the most deadly diseases in the world. Lung cancer detection can save the patient's life. Despite being the best imaging tool in the medical sector, clinicians find it challenging to interpret and detect cancer from Computed Tom...
Dual panel PET systems, such as Breast-PET (B-PET) scanner, exhibit strong asymmetric and anisotropic spatially-variant deformations in the reconstructed images due to the limited-angle data and strong depth of interaction effects for the oblique LOR...
METHODS: 18F-FDG brain PET and clinical score were collected in 85 patients with dementia and 125 healthy controls (HC). Patients were assigned to various form of dementia on the basis of clinical evaluation, follow-up and voxels comparison with HC u...
OBJECTIVE: Immunotherapy has dramatically altered the therapeutic landscape for oncology, but more research is needed to identify patients who are likely to achieve durable clinical benefit and those who may develop unacceptable side effects. We inve...
. Simultaneous PET/MR scanners combine the high sensitivity of MR imaging with the functional imaging of PET. However, attenuation correction of breast PET/MR imaging is technically challenging. The purpose of this study is to establish a robust atte...
This review aims to take a journey into the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. To this scope, a broad overview of AI applications in the field of nuclear medicine and a thorough explor...
