The promise of artificial intelligence and deep learning in PET and SPECT imaging
Open accessAbstract
This review sets out to discuss the foremost applications of artificial intelligence (AI), particularly deep learning (DL) algorithms, in single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. To this end, the underlying limitations/challenges of these imaging modalities are briefly discussed followed by a description of AI-based solutions proposed to address these challenges. This review will focus on mainstream generic fields, including instrumentation, image acquisition/formation, image reconstruction and low-dose/fast scanning, quantitative imaging, image interpretation (computer-aided detection/diagnosis/prognosis), as well as internal radiation dosimetry. A brief description of deep learning algorithms and the fundamental architectures used for these applications is also provided. Finally, the challenges, opportunities, and barriers to full-scale validation and adoption of AI-based solutions for improvement of image quality and quantitative accuracy of PET and SPECT images in the clinic are discussed.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
