Abstract

Artificial intelligence is an important technology, with rapidly expanding applications for cardiac PET. We review the common terminology, including methods for training and testing, which are fundamental to understanding artificial intelligence. Next, we highlight applications to improve image acquisition, reconstruction, and segmentation. Computed tomographic imaging is commonly acquired in conjunction with PET and various artificial intelligence methods have been applied, including methods to automatically extract anatomic information or generate synthetic attenuation images. Last, we describe methods to automate disease diagnosis or risk stratification. This summary highlights the current and future clinical applications of artificial intelligence to cardiovascular PET imaging.Copyright © 2021 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
