Data-driven identification of diagnostically useful extrastriatal signal in dopamine transporter SPECT using explainable AI

Abstract This study used explainable artificial intelligence for data-driven identification of extrastriatal brain regions that can contribute to the interpretation of dopamine transporter SPECT with 123I-FP-CIT in parkinsonian syndromes. A total of 1306 123I-FP-CIT-SPECT were included retrospective...
