Automatic 4D Lung PET-CT Segmentation Using Hybrid Deep Neural Network

Authors: Hongyi Jiang, Fang-Fang Yin

Affiliation: Duke University, Medical Physics Graduate Program, Duke Kunshan University

Abstract Preview: Purpose:
Imaging moving tissues using PET-CT can be difficult. Separating signal into phases during construction reduces signal count and increases influence of noise. Algorithms that use signal fr...

Affiliation: SUNY Upstate Medical University, IIT-Roorkee, University of Florida

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Radiomics feature-based model for predicting distant recurrence can potentially provide critical insight for clinical decision-making and assistance in treatment strategies. This study focuse...

Matching CT Numbers between a Photon-Counting CT and an Energy-Integrating Detector CT: A Phantom Study

Authors: Afrouz Ataei, Xinhui Duan, Mi-Ae Park, Liqiang Ren

Affiliation: Department of Radiology, UT Southwestern Medical Center, UT Southwestern Medical Center, Rush University

Abstract Preview: Purpose:
Photon-counting CT (PCCT) has become commercially available recently, offering significant potential to enhance patient care. However, it also introduces unique challenges. One such challe...

Non-Contact Electroacoustic Imaging Monitoring Electroporation Therapy

Authors: Zhongping Chen, Yuchen Song, Leshan Sun, Liangzhong Xiang, Yifei Xu

Affiliation: University of California, Irvine, University of California Irvine

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Electroacoustic tomography (EAT) monitors the distribution of electrical energy in tissues by detecting acoustics signals induced by electrical pulses during irreversible electroporation (IRE...

SPECT/CT Multimodal Segmentation of Bone Marrow for Theranostic Dosimetry

Authors: Tommaso Frigerio, Joshua Genender, John M. Hoffman, Catherine (Caffi) Meyer

Affiliation: UCLA, David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA

Abstract Preview: Purpose: Accurate bone marrow segmentation is required for bone marrow dosimetry to monitor for dangers in PSMA-Lu177 radioligand therapy. We introduce a hybrid (AI/semantic knowledge) segmentation pi...
