PURPOSE: Deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) for single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) has been used to improve the diagnostic accuracy of coronary artery disease (CAD). This study was to design an...
PURPOSE: Our aim was to develop and validate a machine learning (ML)-based approach for interpretation of I-123 FP-CIT SPECT scans to discriminate Parkinson's disease (PD) from non-PD and to determine its generalizability and clinical value in two ce...
AIM: To investigate the feasibility of reducing the scan time of paediatric technetium 99m (Tc) dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) single-photon-emission computed tomographic (SPECT) using a deep learning (DL) method.

Accurate diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease (PD) at its early stages remains a challenge for modern clinicians. In this study, we utilize a convolutional neural network (CNN) approach to address this problem. In particular, we develop a CNN-based netwo...
PURPOSE: Post-reconstruction filtering is often applied for noise suppression due to limited data counts in myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) with single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). We study a deep learning (DL) approach for denoisi...
