A semi-automatic technique to quantify complex tuberculous lung lesions on (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computerised tomography images

BACKGROUND: There is a growing interest in the use of (18)F-FDG PET-CT to monitor tuberculosis (TB) treatment response. However, TB causes complex and widespread pathology, which is challenging to segment and quantify in a reproducible manner. To address this, we developed a technique to standardise...
