Determination of Optimum Planar Imaging Parameters for Small Structures with Diameters Less Than the Resolution of the Gamma Camera
Introduction: The limited spatial resolution of the gamma camera hinders the absolute quantification of planar images of small structures. The imaged structures are affected by partial volume effects (PVEs), which can spread activity and lead to underestimation of the regional distribution. The use of optimum planar parameters reduces the impact of the limited spatial resolution of the gamma c...
متن کاملIn vivo quantification of 177Lu with planar whole-body and SPECT/CT gamma camera imaging
BACKGROUND Advances in gamma camera technology and the emergence of a number of new theranostic radiopharmaceutical pairings have re-awakened interest in in vivo quantification with single-photon-emitting radionuclides. We have implemented and validated methodology to provide quantitative imaging of (177)Lu for 2D whole-body planar studies and for 3D tomographic imaging with single-photon emiss...
متن کاملPlanar Scintigraphic Images Denoising
Scintigraphic images are generally affected by a Poisson type random noise which diminishes qualitatively and quantitatively the images. Restoration techniques aim to “find” an object from one (or several) degraded observation(s). The objective of the restoration is then to produce an image closer to the physical reality. So that the restoration is successful, it is very useful to know the natu...
متن کاملPanoramic 3D Reconstruction Using Rotating Camera with Planar Mirrors
In this paper, we propose a novel approach for obtaining 3D information of panoramic (360 degrees) environments. We design an image acquisition rig composed with a camera and two planar mirrors. The regular image captured by the camera is separated into uncontinuous three regions by the mirrors arranged in front of the camera. By rotating the rig about a vertical axis with a constant velocity, ...
متن کاملScintigraphic Imaging with Tantalum-17S and the Anger Scintillation Camera: Concise Communication
Tantalum-178 is a short-lived radionuclide (Tm = 9.3 min.) and emits primarily 56to 64-keV characteristic x-rays. We have determined the imaging characteristics with this radionuclide and a large-field-of-view Anger camera. With a pinhole collimator, good spatial resolution is possible with Ta-178, although the image quality is superior with Tc-99m under comparable conditions. Spatial resolutio...
