Abstract
The development of state-of-the-art algorithms for computer visualization has led to a growing interest in applying deep learning (DL) techniques to the field of medical imaging. DL-based algorithms have been extensively utilized in various aspects of cardiovascular imaging, and one notable area of focus is single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI), which is regarded as the gold standard for non-invasive diagnosis of myocardial ischemia. However, due to the complex decision-making process of DL based on convolutional neural networks (CNNs), the explainability of DL results has become a significant area of research, particularly in the field of medical imaging. To better harness the potential of DL and to be well prepared for the ongoing DL revolution in nuclear imaging, this review aims to summarize the recent applications of DL in MPI, with a specific emphasis on the methods in explainable DL for the diagnosis and prognosis of MPI. Furthermore, the challenges and potential directions for future research are also discussed.
期刊介绍:
Science has many big remaining questions. To address them, we will need to work collaboratively and across disciplines. The goal of iScience is to help fuel that type of interdisciplinary thinking. iScience is a new open-access journal from Cell Press that provides a platform for original research in the life, physical, and earth sciences. The primary criterion for publication in iScience is a significant contribution to a relevant field combined with robust results and underlying methodology. The advances appearing in iScience include both fundamental and applied investigations across this interdisciplinary range of topic areas. To support transparency in scientific investigation, we are happy to consider replication studies and papers that describe negative results.
We know you want your work to be published quickly and to be widely visible within your community and beyond. With the strong international reputation of Cell Press behind it, publication in iScience will help your work garner the attention and recognition it merits. Like all Cell Press journals, iScience prioritizes rapid publication. Our editorial team pays special attention to high-quality author service and to efficient, clear-cut decisions based on the information available within the manuscript. iScience taps into the expertise across Cell Press journals and selected partners to inform our editorial decisions and help publish your science in a timely and seamless way.
