Deriving accurate structural maps for attenuation correction (AC) of whole-body positron emission tomography (PET) remains challenging. Common problems include truncation, inter-scan motion, and erroneous transformation of structural voxel-intensitie...
INTRODUCTION: The aim of the study was to extract anthropometric measures from CT by deep learning and to evaluate their prognostic value in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Deep neural networks enable highly accurate image segmentation, but require large amounts of manually annotated data for supervised training. Few-shot learning aims to address this shortcoming by learning a new class from a few annotated support exam...
OBJECTIVE: Artificial neural network (ANN) technology has been developed for clinical use to analyze bone scintigraphy with metastatic bone tumors. It has been reported to improve diagnostic accuracy and reproducibility especially in cases of prostat...
Machine learning is now being increasingly employed in radiology to assist with tasks such as automatic lesion detection, segmentation, and characterisation. We are currently involved in an National Institute of Health Research (NIHR)-funded project,...
PURPOSE: To investigate the use and efficiency of 3-D deep learning, fully convolutional networks (DFCN) for simultaneous tumor cosegmentation on dual-modality nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and positron emission tomography (PET)-computed tomograp...

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the non-invasive modality of choice for body tissue composition analysis due to its excellent soft-tissue contrast and lack of ionizing radiation. However, quantification of body composition requires an accurate se...
The identification of bone lesions is crucial in the diagnostic assessment of multiple myeloma (MM). Ga-Pentixafor PET/CT can capture the abnormal molecular expression of CXCR-4 in addition to anatomical changes. However, whole-body detection of doze...
Accurate and robust tomographic reconstruction from dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) acquired data is a difficult problem. Conventional methods, such as the maximum likelihood expectation maximization (MLEM) algorithm for reconstructing the...
