Swiss Med Wkly. 2022 Jan 27:152:w30123. doi: 10.4414/smw.2022.w30123. eCollection 2022 Jan 17.

Abstract

In the recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) applications have gained interest in the field of cardiovascular medical imaging, including positron emission tomography (PET). The use of AI in cardiac PET imaging is to date limited, although first, important results have been shown, overcoming technical issues, improving diagnostic accuracy and providing prognostic information. In this review we aimed to summarize the state-of-the-art regarding AI applications in cardiovascular PET.
