A review of the application of machine learning in molecular imaging.

ABSTRACT: Molecular imaging (MI) is a science that uses imaging methods to reflect the changes of molecular level in living state and conduct qualitative and quantitative studies on its biological behaviors in imaging. Optical molecular imaging (OMI) and nuclear medical imaging are two key research fields of MI. OMI technology refers to the optical information generated by the imaging target (such as tumors) due to drug intervention and other reasons. By collecting the optical information, researchers can track the motion trajectory of the imaging target at the molecular level. Owing to its high specificity and sensitivity, OMI has been widely used in preclinical research and clinical surgery. Nuclear medical imaging mainly detects ionizing radiation emitted by radioactive substances. It can provide
