Artificial Intelligence in Nuclear Medicine (2015-2025): Clinical Applications, Regulatory Governance, and Pharmacotherapeutic Implications.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly relevant in nuclear medicine, particularly in applications that depend on quantitative image analysis, image reconstruction, acquisition optimization, and clinical decision support. This critical narrative review examines the evolution, clinical applications, ethical and regulatory challenges, and pharmacotherapeutic implications of AI in nuclear medicine from 2015 to 2025.
