PURPOSE: This study aimed to investigate a deep learning model to classify amyloid plaque deposition in the brain PET images of patients suspected of Alzheimer's disease.
BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular disease affects the carotid arteries, coronary arteries, aorta and the peripheral arteries. Radiomics involves the extraction of quantitative data from imaging features that are imperceptible to the eye. Radiomics analysis ...
We develop a machine learning (ML) model using electrocardiography (ECG) to predict myocardial blood flow reserve (MFR) and assess its prognostic value for major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs). Using 3,639 ECG-positron emission tomography (PET...
BACKGROUND: The sophisticated behavioral and cognitive repertoires of non-human primates (NHPs) make them suitable subjects for studies involving cocaine self-administration (SA) schedules. However, ethical considerations, adherence to the 3Rs princi...
BACKGROUND: Salvage radiation therapy (sRT) is often the sole curative option in patients with biochemical recurrence after radical prostatectomy. After sRT, we developed and validated a nomogram to predict freedom from biochemical failure.
Positron emission tomography (PET) utilizes radiotracers like [F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) to measure brain activity in health and disease. Performing behavioral tasks between the FDG injection and the PET scan allows the FDG signal to reflect task-re...

BACKGROUND: Fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET) with suppression of myocardial glucose utilization plays a pivotal role in diagnosing cardiac sarcoidosis. Reorientation of images to match perfusion datasets and myocardial segmen...
INTRODUCTION: Multiplexed PET imaging revolutionized clinical decision-making by simultaneously capturing various radiotracer data in a single scan, enhancing diagnostic accuracy and patient comfort. Through a transformer-based deep learning, this st...

A Support Vector Machine (SVM) based approach was developed to identify a pseudo-reference region for brain PET scans with the aim of reducing interscan and intersubject variability. By training a binary linear SVM classifier with PET datasets from t...
OBJECTIVES: In this study, we propose an interpretable deep learning radiomics (IDLR) model based on [F]FDG PET images to diagnose the clinical spectrum of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and predict the progression from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) to A...
