Use of an Effective Attenuation Coefficient Value and Material Filter Technique for Scatter Correction in Tc-99m SPECT
Accuracy in the diagnosis of disease in Tc-99m Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography is reduced due to the presence of scattered gamma photons in the image data. A range of scatter correction techniques exist, however, none is considered as the standard. The objective of this study is to apply...
