Scatter Correction for Heart SPECT images Using TEW method
Radionuclide imaging has the potential to be used in quantitative analysis of the regional function of organs. However, quantification of SPECT images is degraded by many factors such as Compton photon scattering. This could have a destructive effect on clinical reports so it is important to do scatter correction to get better quality SPECT images. We intended to determine how scatter correctio...
متن کاملA new approach to scatter correction in SPECT images based on Klein_Nishina equation
Introduction: Scattered photon is one of the main defects that degrade the quality and quantitative accuracy of nuclear medicine images. Accurate estimation of scatter in projection data of SPECT is computationally extremely demanding for activity distribution in uniform and non-uniform dense media. Methods: The objective of this paper is to develop and validate a scatter correction technique ...
متن کاملNew approach for attenuation correction in SPECT images, using linear optimization
Background: Photon attenuation as an inevitable physical phenomenon influences on the diagnostic information of SPECT images and results to errors in accuracy of quantitative measurements. This can be corrected via different physical or mathematical approaches. As the correction equation in mathematical approaches is nonlinear, in this study a new method of linearization called ‘Piece ...
متن کاملQualitative evaluation of Chang method of attenuation correction on heart SPECT by using custom made heart phantom
SPECT detects γ-rays from administered radiopharmaceutical within the patient body. γ-rays pass through different tissues before reaching detectors and are attenuated. Attenuation can cause artifacts; therefore different methods are used to minimize attenuation effects. In our study efficacy of Chang method was evaluated for attenuation purpose, using a custom made heart phantom. Due to d...
