Precision DL by GE Healthcare is a deep learning software designed to improve the quality of non-Time-of-Flight PET images used in clinical oncology. It enhances image contrast and reduces noise, helping clinicians obtain clearer PET scans to better detect and evaluate cancer, ultimately supporting improved patient care.
Precision DL is a deep learning-based image processing method intended to enhance image quality of non-ToF PET images for clinical oncology purpose, using F-18 FDG. Precision DL may be used for patients of all ages.
Precision DL is deployed within the acquisition and processing software of the Omni Legend PET/CT system as an image processing option. It employs deep learning to enhance non-ToF Q.Clear PET images to have quality similar to Time-of-Flight (ToF) PET images, improving parameters like Contrast Recovery, Contrast to Noise Ratio, and quantitation accuracy. It offers three models (Low, Medium, High) to balance contrast enhancement and noise reduction. It uses the same hardware as the predicate device and introduces no new risks.
The device underwent extensive non-clinical bench testing including quantitation accuracy, contrast recovery, contrast-to-noise ratio, lesion detectability, and dose/time reduction using both clinical and phantom data from multiple clinical sites. A clinical reader study with board-certified radiologists confirmed acceptable diagnostic image quality and preference for Precision DL images. No new safety issues were identified.
