Nuclear medicine imaging modalities such as PET and SPECT are confounded by high noise levels and low spatial resolution, necessitating postreconstruction image enhancement to improve their quality and quantitative accuracy. Artificial intelligence (...
Low-count positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is challenging because of the ill-posedness of this inverse problem. Previous studies have demonstrated that deep learning (DL) holds promise for achieving improved low-count PET image quality. How...
OBJECTIVE: Deep learning approaches have attracted attention for improving the scoring accuracy in computed tomography-less single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). In this study, we proposed a novel deep learning approach referring to pos...
OBJECTIVES: A deep learning (DL) model using image data from pretreatment [ 18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose ([ 18 F] FDG)-PET or computed tomography (CT) augmented with a novel imaging augmentation approach was developed for the early prediction of distant m...
Medical image synthesis represents a critical area of research in clinical decision-making, aiming to overcome the challenges associated with acquiring multiple image modalities for an accurate clinical workflow. This approach proves beneficial in es...
Positron emission tomography (PET) is vital for diagnosing diseases and monitoring treatments. Conventional image reconstruction (IR) techniques like filtered backprojection and iterative algorithms are powerful but face limitations. PET IR can be se...
