Limited-angle SPECT image reconstruction using deep image prior.

Physics in medicine and biology
. In single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) image reconstruction, limited-angle conditions lead to a loss of frequency components, which distort the reconstructed tomographic image along directions corresponding to the non-collected proje...

AI in SPECT Imaging: Opportunities and Challenges.

Seminars in nuclear medicine
SPECT is a widely used imaging modality in nuclear medicine which provides essential functional insights into cardiovascular, neurological, and oncological diseases. However, SPECT imaging suffers from limited quantitative accuracy due to low spatial...

Artificial Intelligence-Enhanced Perfusion Scoring Improves the Diagnostic Accuracy of Myocardial Perfusion Imaging.

Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine
We previously demonstrated that a deep learning (DL) model of myocardial perfusion SPECT imaging improved accuracy for detection of obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD). We aimed to improve the clinical translatability of this artificial intelli...

Artificial intelligence-powered coronary artery disease diagnosis from SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging: a comprehensive deep learning study.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
BACKGROUND: Myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) using single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is a well-established modality for noninvasive diagnostic assessment of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, the time-consuming and experience-...

Interpretation of basal nuclei in brain dopamine transporter scans using a deep convolutional neural network.

Nuclear medicine communications
OBJECTIVE: Functional imaging using the dopamine transporter (DAT) as a biomarker has proven effective in assessing dopaminergic neuron degeneration in the striatum. In assessing the neuron degeneration, visual and semiquantitative methods are used t...

Diffusion-driven multi-modality medical image fusion.

Medical & biological engineering & computing
Multi-modality medical image fusion (MMIF) technology utilizes the complementarity of different modalities to provide more comprehensive diagnostic insights for clinical practice. Existing deep learning-based methods often focus on extracting the pri...

Deep learning-based CT-free attenuation correction for cardiac SPECT: a new approach.

BMC medical imaging
BACKGROUND: Computed tomography attenuation correction (CTAC) is commonly used in cardiac SPECT imaging to reduce soft-tissue attenuation artifacts. However, CTAC is prone to inaccuracies due to CT artifacts and SPECT-CT mismatch, along with addition...

First comparison between artificial intelligence-guided coronary computed tomography angiography versus single-photon emission computed tomography testing for ischemia in clinical practice.

Coronary artery disease
BACKGROUND: Noninvasive cardiac testing with coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) are becoming alternatives to invasive angiography for the evaluation of obstructive coronary artery di...

Incorporating label uncertainty during the training of convolutional neural networks improves performance for the discrimination between certain and inconclusive cases in dopamine transporter SPECT.

European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging
PURPOSE: Deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) hold promise for assisting the interpretation of dopamine transporter (DAT)-SPECT. For improved communication of uncertainty to the user it is crucial to reliably discriminate certain from inconclusiv...
