Artificial Intelligence in Nuclear Cardiology

Background/Objectives: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in Medicine. The aim of this review is to summarize its use in the field of Nuclear Cardiology. Methods: After a shrort description of how AI works, the main reported applications have been examined. Results: AI has been applied according to various approaches for diagnosis and prognosis. The achieved gains have been so far relatively limited as compared to the traditional methodologies. However, promising results have been reported, including interesting perspectives for their explainability. Conclusions: AI is going to play an important role soon in Nuclear Cardiology, but further improvements are needed, and several important issues must be solved, such as availability, explainability, liability, and ethics of its application in clinical decision making.
