摘要

本研究旨在评估一种基于深度学习的衰减校正(AC)方法,从非AC单光子发射计算机断层扫描图像(SPECTNC)生成伪计算机断层扫描(CT)图像,用于99mtc -半乳糖人白蛋白二乙烯三胺五乙酸(GSA)闪烁成像,并减少患者剂量。采用循环一致生成网络(CycleGAN)模型生成伪ct图像。训练数据集包括从SPECTNC和真实CT图像中获得的大约850个肝脏幻象图像。然后将训练数据集输入CycleGAN,输出伪ct图像。获得实时CT衰减校正(specctac)和伪CT衰减校正(SPECTGAN)的SPECT图像。评估真实CT与伪CT图像的肝脏体积差异。然后使用总数和均匀性来评估AC的效果。此外,使用结构相似性(SSIM)指数评估specctac和SPECTGAN的相似系数。伪CT图像显示肝脏体积小于真实CT图像。specctac的总计数高于SPECTNC和SPECTGAN,后者分别低约60%和7%。specctac和SPECTGAN的均匀性优于SPECTNC。specctac和SPECTGAN的平均SSIM值为0.97。我们提出了一种基于深度学习的AC方法,从99mTc-GSA科学成像中的SPECTNC图像生成伪ct图像。使用伪CT图像的SPECTGAN与使用AC的specctac相似,证明了在减少辐射暴露的情况下进行SPECT/CT检查的可能性。

Deep learning-based attenuation correction method in 99mTc-GSA SPECT/CT hepatic imaging: a phantom study.

This study aimed to evaluate a deep learning-based attenuation correction (AC) method to generate pseudo-computed tomography (CT) images from non-AC single-photon emission computed tomography images (SPECTNC) for AC in 99mTc-galactosyl human albumin diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (GSA) scintigraphy and to reduce patient dosage. A cycle-consistent generative network (CycleGAN) model was used to generate pseudo-CT images. The training datasets comprised approximately 850 liver phantom images obtained from SPECTNC and real CT images. The training datasets were then input to CycleGAN, and pseudo-CT images were output. SPECT images with real-time CT attenuation correction (SPECTCTAC) and pseudo-CT attenuation correction (SPECTGAN) were acquired. The difference in liver volume between real CT and pseudo-CT images was evaluated. Total counts and uniformity were then used to evaluate the effects of AC. Additionally, the similarity coefficients of SPECTCTAC and SPECTGAN were assessed using a structural similarity (SSIM) index. The pseudo-CT images produced a lower liver volume than the real CT images. SPECTCTAC exhibited a higher total count than SPECTNC and SPECTGAN, which were approximately 60% and 7% lower, respectively. The uniformities of SPECTCTAC and SPECTGAN were better than those of SPECTNC. The mean SSIM value for SPECTCTAC and SPECTGAN was 0.97. We proposed a deep learning-based AC approach to generate pseudo-CT images from SPECTNC images in 99mTc-GSA scintigraphy. SPECTGAN with AC using pseudo-CT images was similar to SPECTCTAC, demonstrating the possibility of SPECT/CT examination with reduced exposure to radiation.
