In this study we implemented and evaluated a combined
unsupervised-supervised classification algorithm for the
analysis of multiparametrc PET/MRI data that allows for
robust classification in cases where prior knowledge
about the data is limited. We applied the proposed
method to [11C]-Choline-PET/MRI data of the prostate and
observed high classification accuracy compared to manual
tumor delineation and to histological slices. Numerous
applications of this approach are conceivable,
especially in areas where histopathological correlation
is difficult (e.g. brain imaging) and thus knowledge
about ground truth is limited.
