The REgistry of Flow and Perfusion Imaging for Artificial INtelligEnce with PET (REFINE PET): Rationale and Design.

ABSTRACT:

Rationale

The REgistry of Flow and Perfusion Imaging for Artificial INtelligEnce with PET (REFINE PET) was established to aggregate PET and associated computed tomography (CT) images with clinical data from hospitals around the world into one comprehensive research resource.

Methods

REFINE PET is a multicenter, international registry that contains both clinical and imaging data. The PET scans were processed using QPET software (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, Los Angeles, CA), while the CT scans were processed using deep learning (DL) to detect coronary artery calcium (CAC). Patients were followed up for the occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), which include death, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, and late revascularization (>90 days from PET).
