Brief summary
To investigate the feasibility of deep learning-assisted rapid silent PET/MR in pediatric applications.
Detailed description
This study aims to address the challenges faced by PET/MR in pediatric applications by leveraging new technologies such as flexible coils, silent sequences, and deep learning-based image reconstruction. The objective is to provide a rapid, silent, comfortable, and half-dose PET/MR imaging solution for pediatric patients, and to demonstrate its feasibility in this patient population.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Lesion detection rate | 1 year | Routine laboratory or imaging tests or pathology are performed based on clinical needs to assess the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of rapid silent 18F-FDG PET/MR for lesion detection. |
| Completion of PET/MR examinations | 1 year | Upon completion of the examination, record the rate of completion |
| Sedation during PET/MR examinations | 1 year | Upon completion of the examination, record the rate of sedation and rate of secondary sedation |
| Qualitative image quality | 1 year | Two experienced nuclear medicine physicians evaluated the overall quality of the images using a Likert 5-point scale for both the new imaging PET/MR protocol and the traditional imaging protocol. |
