Evaluation of spatial dependence of point spread function-based PET reconstruction using a traceable point-like 22Na source

Evaluation of spatial dependence of point spread function-based PET reconstruction using a traceable point-like 22Na source

Abstract Background The point spread function (PSF) of positron emission tomography (PET) depends on the position across the field of view (FOV). Reconstruction based on PSF improves spatial resolution and quantitative accuracy. The present study aimed to quantify the effects of PSF correction as a...
