Predictions and Grad-CAMs of ViT-based models on sample PET/CT, PET, and CT test images from the “positive” class. ViT was fine-tuned using training data for each modality. The bounding boxes depicted in the figure indicate malignant lesions. The top row of the Grad-CAMs shows important areas for “positive” predictions, and the bottom row shows areas for “negative” predictions. Image courtesy of Scientific Reports.

ChatGPT powered by GPT-4 and using DALL-E−3 was asked to generate an image for teaching purposes that demonstrated: a nuclear medicine bone scan with skeletal metastases (top left); coronary artery disease (top right); an F-18 FDG-PET scan of the brain with Alzheimer's disease (bottom left); and an x-ray showing a fracture (bottom right). These are misleading for educational purposes and for patients who may be searching for information. Image and caption courtesy of Radiography.
