F]FDG PET/CT findings in patients with sarcoidosis and malignant lymphoma before treatment. • Convolutional neural networks, a type of deep learning technique, trained with maximum-intensity projection PET images from two angles showed high performance. • A deep learning model that utilizes differences in FDG distribution may be helpful in differentiating between diseases with lesions that are characteristically widespread among organs and lymph nodes.
