AI-ENABLED EARLY-PET ACQUISITION

Data processing systems (DPS) and related methods for nuclear medicine imaging. At an input interface (IN), first projection data (λ), or a first image (V) reconstructable from the first projection data, is received. The first projection data is associated with a first waiting period (ΔT*). The first waiting period indicates the time period from administration of a tracer agent to a start of acquisition by a nuclear medicine imaging apparatus (IA) of the projection date. A trained machine learning module (MLM) estimates, based on the first projection data (λ) or on the first image (V), a second projection data (λ′) or a second image (V′) associable with a second waiting period (ΔT), longer than the first waiting period (ΔT*). Nuclear imaging can thus be conducted quicker. Similar machine learning based data processing systems and related methods are also envisaged to reduce acquisition time periods or the time it takes to reconstruct imagery.

11704872 · 2023-07-18 · ·

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a software program that displays both a volume as images and segmentation results as surface models in 3D. Multiple 2D slices are extracted from the 3D volume. The 2D slices may be interactively rotated by the user to best follow an oblique structure. The 2D slices can “cut” the surface models from the segmentation so that only half of the models are displayed. The border curves resulting from the cuts are displayed in the 2D slices. The user may click a point on the surface model to designate a landmark point. The corresponding location of the point is highlighted in the 2D slices. A 2D slice can be reoriented such that the line lies in the slice. The user can then further evaluate or refine the landmark points based on both surface and image information.
