Fully 3D Monte Carlo image reconstruction in SPECT using functional regions
Z. El Bitar, D. Lazaro, C. Coello +3
Image reconstruction in Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) is affected by physical effects such as photon attenuation, Compton scatter and detector response. These…
Monte Carlo tomographic reconstruction in SPECT impact of bootstrapping and number of generated events
Z. El Bitar, I. Buvat, V. Breton +2
In Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), 3D images usually reconstructed by performing a set of bidimensional (2D) analytical or iterative reconstructions can also be…
Effect of noise and modeling errors on the reliability of fully 3D Monte Carlo reconstruction in SPECT
D. Lazaro, Z. El Bitar, V. Breton +1
We recently demonstrated the value of reconstructing SPECT data with fully 3D Monte Carlo reconstruction (F3DMC), in terms of spatial resolution and quantification. This was shown…
Validation of the GATE Monte Carlo simulation platform for modelling a CsI(Tl) scintillation camera dedicated to small animal imaging
D. Lazaro, I. Buvat, G. Loudos +9
Monte Carlo simulations are increasingly used in scintigraphic imaging to model imaging systems and to develop and assess tomographic reconstruction algorithms and correction metho…
GATE : a simulation toolkit for PET and SPECT
S. Jan, G. Santin, D. Strul +50
Monte Carlo simulation is an essential tool in emission tomography that can assist in the design of new medical imaging devices, the optimization of acquisition protocols, and the…
