PURPOSE: We evaluated the impact of PET respiratory motion correction (MoCo) in a phantom and patients. Moreover, we proposed and examined a PET MoCo approach using motion vector fields (MVFs) from a deep-learning reconstructed short MRI scan.
OBJECTIVE: To examine whether the machine-learning approach using 18-fludeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (F-FDG-PET)-based radiomic and deep-learning features is useful for predicting the pathological risk subtypes of thymic epithelial tumor...

BACKGROUND: Advanced cardiac imaging with positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful tool for the evaluation of known or suspected cardiovascular disease. Deep learning (DL) offers the possibility to abstract highly complex patterns to optimize...
BACKGROUND: MR-based methods for attenuation correction (AC) in PET/MRI either neglect attenuation of bone, or use MR-signal derived information about bone, which leads to a bias in quantification of tracer uptake in PET. In a previous study, we pres...
PURPOSE: The time-of-flight (TOF) information improves signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. Existing analytical algorithms for TOF PET usually follow a filtered back-projection process on reconstructing images f...
OBJECTIVES: To demonstrate the effectiveness of automatic segmentation of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in 3D FDG-PET scans using a deep learning approach and validate its value in prognosis in an external validation cohort.
