High resolution reconstruction for 3D SPECT
In this work, we have developed a new method for SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography) image reconstruction, which has shown the potential to provide higher resolution results than any other conventional methods using the same projection data. Unlike the conventional FBP(filtered backprojection) and EM(expectation maximization) type algorithms, we utilize as much system response in...
متن کاملHigh-efficiency, high-resolution SPECT techniques for cardiac imaging
Current standard clinical SPECT techniques provide a resolution of at best 1 cm and sensitivity in the order of 10. Performance is largely determined by the collimator. Basic geometry couples resolution and sensitivity; the problem of high-resolution imaging is a formidable one because, to image at constant Signal-to-Noise, resolution improvements must be supported by simultaneous sensitivity i...
متن کاملAxionic Shortcuts for High Energy Photons
We study the photon axion mixing in the presence of large extra dimensions. The eigenvalues and eigenstates of the mixing matrix are analyzed and we establish the resonance condition for the total conversion of a high energy photon into a Kaluza-Klein (KK) axion state. This resonant transition, a photon transformed into a KK axion travelling freely through the bulk and converting back into a ph...
متن کاملVery High Energy Photons in Universe
I discuss the recent exciting results of discovery of TeV photons from several galactic and extra-galactic sources, and highlight some objectives of VHE gamma ray astronomy that can be achieved in the near future by means of new generation ground-based detectors.
متن کاملRadiation Shielding Features of Ordinary and High-Density Concretes Loaded With PbO Micro and Nanoparticles against High-Energy Photons
Introduction: The present study aimed to evaluate the impact of PbO nano and micro-sized fillers on ordinary and heavy concretes for different photon energies. Material and Methods: The MCNPX Monte Carlo code (version 2.6.0) was used for all simulations in the present study. A model of narrow-beam geometry was validated and utilized to calcul...
