Use of a tin (Sn) flat sheet as a material filter for reduction of scattered gamma photons and enhancement of cold regions image quality in Tc-99m SPECT
The presence of scattered gamma photons in SPECT data degrade the quality of reconstructed images. In this work, a material filter was employed in order to improve cold regions detectability and overall image quality by pre-filtering of some fraction of scattered gamma photons. Material filter was c...
