PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to evaluate random forests (RFs) to identify ROIs on F-florbetapir and F-FDG PET associated with Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score.
Computed tomography (CT) is used for the attenuation correction (AC) of [F-18] fluoro-deoxy-glucose positron emission tomography (PET) image. However, acquisition of a CT image for this purpose requires increasing the radiation dose of the patient. T...

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic ability of support vector machine (SVM) for early breast cancer (BC) using dedicated breast positron emission tomography (dbPET).
BACKGROUND: Amyloid-β positivity (Aβ+) based on PET imaging is part of the enrollment criteria for many of the clinical trials of Alzheimer's disease (AD), particularly in trials for amyloid-targeted therapy. Predicting Aβ positivity prior to PET ima...
PURPOSE: To evaluate random forests (RFs) as a supervised machine learning algorithm to classify amyloid brain PET as positive or negative for amyloid deposition and identify key regions of interest for stratification.
Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is an effective tool used in determining disease stage and lesion malignancy; however, radiation exposure to patients and technicians during PET scans continues to draw concern. One way to minimize radiation...
