Abstract Purpose This study aims to develop a CycleGAN based denoising model to enhance the quality of low‐dose PET (LDPET) images, making them as close as possible to standard‐dose PET (SDPET) images. Methods Using a Philips Vereos PET/CT system, whole‐body PET images of fluorine‐18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F‐FDG) were acquired from 37 patients to ...
