In this study, we performed two experiments to explore radiomic features and multi-modality medical image fusion (IF). the first experiment, investigated performance of multiple IF algorithms for reflecting from both PET CT modalities in a single scan. second if can serve as an objective quality assessment (QA) metric. Experiments were on PET/CT images 328 histologically proven head neck tumors segmented by experienced radiologist. The iterative metal artifact reduction (iMAR) algorithm was applied images, their Hounsfield Unit range clipped [-500,500], then all resized isotropic voxel size 1 × mm3, quantized normalized integer values [0, 255]. To have comprehensive analysis, fused using 11 different covering almost categories, 13 metrics categories calculated each fusion. Ninety-four textural extracted regarding Image Biomarker Standardization Initiative (IBSI) guidelines. For Spearman correlation feature between its fused-set CT- PET-sets, coefficients higher than 0.7 considered significant. A "preserved" it correlated with peer sets. QA significant 0.7. Among methods GFF (guided filtering fusion) FPDE (fourth-order partial differential equation) had best results conserving 22 19 features, respectively, showing ability reflect maximum information GLCM least preserved across fusions. Several Radiomic showed peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) root mean square error (RMSE) metric methods, while no entropy (EN), SSIM (structural similarity index measure), AG (average gradient), EI (edge intensity), SD (standard deviation), SF (spatial frequency), Qcv (Chen-Varshney metric).

Coronary artery disease (CAD) has one of the highest mortality rates in humans worldwide. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) provides clinicians with metabolic information non-invasively.

Myocarditis, characterized by inflammation of the myocardial tissue, presents substantial risks to cardiovascular functionality, potentially precipitating critical outcomes including heart failure and arrhythmias. This investigation primarily aims identify optimal magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) views for distinguishing between normal myocarditis cases, using deep learning (DL) methodologies. Analyzing CMRI data from a cohort 269 individuals, with 231 confirmed cases 38 as control participants, we implemented an innovative DL framework facilitate automated detection myocarditis. Our approach was divided into single-frame multi-frame analyses evaluate different types acquisitions diagnostic accuracy.
