Phantom and clinical evaluation of bone SPECT/CT image reconstruction with xSPECT algorithm

Abstract Background Two novel methods of image reconstruction, xSPECT Quant (xQ) and xSPECT Bone (xB), that use an ordered subset conjugate gradient minimizer (OSCGM) for SPECT/CT reconstruction have been proposed. The present study compares the performance characteristics of xQ, xB, and conventiona...
