SPECT Reconstruction with a Non-linear Transformed Attenuation Prototype
This work deals with the single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) reconstruction process. As a SPECT measurement also depends on unknown attenuation properties of the tissue, such a process is challenging. Furthermore, the given attenuation may not be a good approximation to the true attenuation field. Reasons are repositioning or movement of the patient such as relaxation during scan...
متن کاملCause of apical thinning on attenuation-corrected myocardial perfusion SPECT.
OBJECTIVES Decreases in apical and apex activities - namely, 'apical thinning' - are a well-known phenomenon in attenuation-corrected (AC) myocardial perfusion. The aim of this study was to compare actual myocardial thickness derived from a multidetector-row computed tomography with AC myocardial perfusion count from a hybrid single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography to inv...
متن کاملRay-driven analytical fan-beam SPECT reconstruction with nonuniform attenuation
Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is based on the measurement of radiation emitted by a radiotracer injected into the patient. Because of photoelectric absorption and Compton scatter, the γ photons are attenuated inside the body before arriving at the detector. A quantitative reconstruction must consider the attenuation, which is usually non-uniform. Novikov and Natterer had de...
متن کاملHalf-time SPECT myocardial perfusion imaging with attenuation correction.
UNLABELLED Reducing acquisition time may improve patient throughput, increase camera efficiency, and reduce costs; reducing acquisition time also increases image noise. Newly available software controls the effects of noise by maximum a posteriori reconstruction while maintaining resolution with resolution-recovery methods. This study compares half-time (HT) gated myocardial SPECT images proces...
متن کاملAttenuation map estimation with SPECT emission data only
Quantitative SPECT can be well achieved if photon attenuation is taken into account in the reconstruction process. Using a transmission scan is a common approach. A dramatic simplification could be made if the attenuation map could be obtained from the emission data. In this paper, we propose a new method to estimate the attenuation map using the data consistency conditions of the attenuated Ra...
