Abstract

The nuclear medicine field has seen a rapid expansion of academic and commercial interests in developing artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. Users and developers can avoid some of the pitfalls of AI by recognizing and following best practices in AI algorithm development. In this article, recommendations for technical best practices for developing AI algorithms in nuclear medicine are provided, beginning with general recommendations followed by descriptions on how one might practice these principles for specific topics within nuclear medicine. This report was produced by the AI Task Force of the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging.Copyright © 2021 by the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Inc.
