Artificial Delayed-phase Technetium-99m MIBI Scintigraphy From Early-phase Scintigraphy Improves Identification of Hyperfunctioning Parathyroid Lesions in Patients With Hyperparathyroidism.

Clinical nuclear medicine
PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to generate and validate artificial delayed-phase technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile scintigraphy (aMIBI) images from early-phase technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile scintigraphy (eMIBI) images.

Deep-learning-based estimation of attenuation map improves attenuation correction performance over direct attenuation estimation for myocardial perfusion SPECT.

Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology
BACKGROUND: Deep learning (DL)-based attenuation correction (AC) is promising to improve myocardial perfusion (MP) SPECT. We aimed to optimize and compare the DL-based direct and indirect AC methods, with and without SPECT and CT mismatch.

Deep learning-based denoising in projection-domain and reconstruction-domain for low-dose myocardial perfusion SPECT.

Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology
BACKGROUND: Low-dose (LD) myocardial perfusion (MP) SPECT suffers from high noise level, leading to compromised diagnostic accuracy. Here we investigated the denoising performance for MP-SPECT using a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN)...

Deep learning-based detection of parathyroid adenoma by Tc-MIBI scintigraphy in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism.

Annals of nuclear medicine
OBJECTIVE: It is important to detect parathyroid adenomas by parathyroid scintigraphy with 99m-technetium sestamibi (Tc-MIBI) before surgery. This study aimed to develop and validate deep learning (DL)-based models to detect parathyroid adenoma in pa...

Accuracy of an artificial neural network for detecting a regional abnormality in myocardial perfusion SPECT.

Annals of nuclear medicine
OBJECTIVES: The patient-based diagnosis with an artificial neural network (ANN) has shown potential utility for the detection of coronary artery disease; however, the region-based accuracy of the detected regions has not been fully evaluated. The aim...

Prediction of revascularization after myocardial perfusion SPECT by machine learning in a large population.

Journal of nuclear cardiology : official publication of the American Society of Nuclear Cardiology
OBJECTIVE: We aimed to investigate if early revascularization in patients with suspected coronary artery disease can be effectively predicted by integrating clinical data and quantitative image features derived from perfusion SPECT (MPS) by machine l...

Fuzzy logic-based moving average filters for reducing noise from Tc-99m-sestamibi parathyroid images.

Nuclear medicine communications
INTRODUCTION: The objective of the study was to use fuzzy logic-based moving average filters for reducing noise from Tc-99m-sestamibi parathyroid images and to compare its performance with classical moving average filters.
