Next-generation sequencing (NGS) data present an untapped potential to improve microbial risk assessment (MRA) through increased specificity and redefinition of the hazard. Most of the MRA models do not account for differences in survivability and vi...
PURPOSE: F-NaF PET/CT imaging of bone metastases is confounded by tracer uptake in benign diseases, such as osteoarthritis. The goal of this work was to develop an automated bone lesion classification algorithm to classify lesions in NaF PET/CT image...
