Artificial Intelligence in Medical Imaging and its Impact on the Rare Disease Community: Threats, Challenges and Opportunities.

PET clinics
Almost 1 in 10 individuals can suffer from one of many rare diseases (RDs). The average time to diagnosis for an RD patient is as high as 7 years. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based positron emission tomography (PET), if implemented appropriately, ha...

Analysis of Human Head Motion and Robotic Compensation for PET Imaging Studies.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Functional medical imaging systems can provide insights into brain activity during various tasks, but most current imaging systems are bulky devices that are not compatible with many human movements. Our motivating application is to perform Positron ...

Development of a deep learning method for CT-free correction for an ultra-long axial field of view PET scanner.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
INTRODUCTION: The possibility of low-dose positron emission tomography (PET) imaging using high sensitivity long axial field of view (FOV) PET/computed tomography (CT) scanners makes CT a critical radiation burden in clinical applications. Artificial...

Deep Learning for Predicting Gamma-Ray Interaction Positions in LYSO Detector.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is among the most commonly used medical imaging modalities in clinical practice, especially for oncological applications. In contrast to conventional imaging modalities like X-ray Computed Tomography (CT) or Magneti...

Deep learning based timing calibration for PET.

Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society. Annual International Conference
Neural network has been found an increasingly wide utilization in all fields. Owing to the fact that the traditional optimized algorithm, Iterative Shrinkage-Thresholding Algorithm (ISTA) or Alternating Direction Method of Multi-pliers (ADMM), could ...

Toward High-Throughput Artificial Intelligence-Based Segmentation in Oncological PET Imaging.

PET clinics
Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques for image-based segmentation have garnered much attention in recent years. Convolutional neural networks have shown impressive results and potential toward fully automated segmentation in medical imaging, and p...

Artificial Intelligence-Based Image Enhancement in PET Imaging: Noise Reduction and Resolution Enhancement.

PET clinics
High noise and low spatial resolution are two key confounding factors that limit the qualitative and quantitative accuracy of PET images. Artificial intelligence models for image denoising and deblurring are becoming increasingly popular for the post...

The Evolution of Image Reconstruction in PET: From Filtered Back-Projection to Artificial Intelligence.

PET clinics
PET can provide functional images revealing physiologic processes in vivo. Although PET has many applications, there are still some limitations that compromise its precision: the absorption of photons in the body causes signal attenuation; the dead-t...

Potential Applications of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Radiochemistry and Radiochemical Engineering.

PET clinics
Artificial intelligence and machine learning are poised to disrupt PET imaging from bench to clinic. In this perspective, the authors offer insights into how the technology could be applied to improve the radiosynthesis of new radiopharmaceuticals fo...
