The goal of this research was to develop and evaluate a practical transmission scanning system for attenuation correction on a 2-head gamma camera coincidence scanner.The transmission system operates in singles mode and uses point sources of 137Cs th

Our objective was to build and test a new system for transmission CT (TCT) imaging on a three-headed SPECT camera. The TCT images are intended for use in nonuniform attenuation correction of cardiac SPECT data.The system consists of a transmission li

A method of quantitatively imaging 131I distributions in brain tumors from intratumoral administration of activity was developed and investigated using pinhole SPECT of brain tumor phantoms.Pinhole SPECT sensitivity and resolution were characterized

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of patient motion on nonuniform attenuation correction of cardiac SPECT when the transmission and emission scans were performed sequentially. By using a sequential protocol rather than doing the s

This study evaluates the quantitative accuracy of SPECT for in vivo distributions of 99mTc radiopharmaceuticals using fanbeam (FB) and parallel-beam (PB) collimators and compares uniform and nonuniform attenuation correction methods in terms of quant

The goals of this study were to investigate the effect of septal penetration on 123I SPECT activity quantitation using low-energy, high-resolution collimators, and to evaluate a semi-automatic method for measuring volume and activity of 123I distribu

We describe a technique using a line source and a rotatable air-copper-lead assembly to acquire gamma transmission computed tomographic (TCT) data for determining attenuation maps to compensate SPECT emission scans. The technique minimizes problems a

An observer study was performed in order to evaluate several filters used in SPECT imaging. The filters were applied to the simulated projection data of a uniform activity density cylinder which contained a cold, spherical lesion, 2 cm in diameter. T
