Tc-99m myocardial SPECT image quality improvement with a physical filter as scattered gamma photon absorber: phantom study
Introduction: Presence of scattered gamma photons in the projection data of Tc-99m Myocardial SPECT degrades the image quality. Thus, the efficacy of SPECT in patient studies is hampered. This work is aimed at enhancing the image quality and accuracy in measurement of cold defect size by pre-filteri...
