This paper presents an alternative view on propo-sitional disjunctive logic program: Disjunctive program = Control program + Horn program. For this we introduce a program transformation which transforms a disjunctive logic program into a Horn program and a so called control program. The control program consists of only disjunctions of new proposi-tional atoms and controls the \execution" of the...

Introduction: In nuclear medicine imaging, detection of the scattered photons along with the primary photons is one of the major problems that can lead to a decrease in ddiagnostic accuracy. Therefore, use of a suitable scatter correction method can help to improve of the image quality and increase of diagnostic accuracy. The aim of this study is evaluation of five energy wind...

Introduction: Acquiring a high quality image has assigned an important concern for obtaining accurate diagnosis in nuclear medicine. Detector and collimator are critical component of Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) imaging system for giving accurate information from exact pattern of radionuclide distribution in the target organ. The images are strongly affect...

introduction: image quality and accuracy of in vivo activity quantification in spect are affected by collimator penetration and scatter components, especially in high energy imaging. these phenomena highly depend on the collimator characteristic and photon energy. the presence of penetrated and scattered photons from collimator in spect images degrades spatial resolution, contrast and image qua...
