Machine-learning based quantification of lung shunt fraction from 99mTc-MAA SPECT/CT for selective internal radiation therapy of liver tumors using TriDFusion (3DF)
The utilization of TriDFusion (3DF) AI 3D Lung Shunt is a precise method for quantifying lung shunt fraction (LSF) and is more accurate than planar 2D image-based estimates. By incorporating machine learning segmentation and compensating for breathing motion, the approach underscores the potential of artificial intelligence (AI)-driven techniques to revolutionize pulmonary imaging, providing clinicians with efficient and reliable tools for treatment planning and patient management.
