PURPOSE: Deep-learning-based attenuation correction (AC) for SPECT includes both indirect and direct approaches. Indirect approaches generate attenuation maps (μ-maps) from emission images, while direct approaches predict AC images directly from non-...
AIM: The purpose of this study was to automatically extract myocardial regions from transaxial single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images using deep learning to reduce the effects of extracardiac activity, which has been problematic in...
This study used explainable artificial intelligence for data-driven identification of extrastriatal brain regions that can contribute to the interpretation of dopamine transporter SPECT with I-FP-CIT in parkinsonian syndromes. A total of 1306 I-FP-CI...

PURPOSE: This work was set out to investigate the feasibility of dose reduction in SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) without sacrificing diagnostic accuracy. A deep learning approach was proposed to synthesize full-dose images from the corresp...
BACKGROUND: Radioembolization with Y microspheres is a treatment approach for liver cancer. Currently, employed dosimetric calculations exhibit low accuracy, lacking consideration of individual patient, and tissue characteristics.

We compared the prognostic value of myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) by conventional- (C-) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and cadmium-zinc-telluride- (CZT-) SPECT in a cohort of patients with suspected or known coronary artery d...
BACKGROUND: Functional imaging especially the SPECT bone scintigraphy has been accepted as the effective clinical tool for diagnosis, treatment, evaluation, and prevention of various diseases including metastasis. However, SPECT imaging is brightly c...
Recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI) technology have enabled new developments that can improve attenuation and scatter correction in PET and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). These technologies will enable the use of ...
