Deep learning-based CT-free attenuation correction for cardiac SPECT: a new approach by Pei Yang, Zeao Zhang, Jianan Wei, Lisha Jiang, Liqian Yu, Huawei Cai, Lin Li, Quan Guo, Zhen Zhao

“…The network was trained on 167 cardiac SPECT/CT studies using 5-fold cross validation and tested in an independent testing set (n = 35), with CTAC serving as the reference. During training, multi-scale features from non-attenuation-corrected (NAC) SPECT and CT were processed separately and then aligned with the encoded features from NAC SPECT using adversarial learning and distance metric learning techniques. …”

Neural Correlates of Irritability and Potential Moderating Effects of Inhibitory Control by Mariah DeSerisy, Jacob W. Cohen, Huiyu Yang, Bruce Ramphal, Paige Greenwood, Kahini Mehta, Michael P. Milham, Theodore D. Satterthwaite, David Pagliaccio, Amy E. Margolis

“…Methods: We hypothesized that higher irritability scores would be associated with less positive (or negative) connectivity between cognitive control and threat-processing circuits and between cognitive control and reward-processing circuits in the Healthy Brain Network dataset (release 10.0; N = 4135). We also hypothesized that these associations would be moderated by inhibitory control such that weaker associations between irritability and connectivity would be detected in youths with better than with worse inhibitory control. …”
