Flat sheet of zinc material as a filter for gamma photons in Tc-99m SPECT imaging
Purpose of the Study: Scattered gamma photons in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is one of the main issues that degrade the image quality. There are several types of scatter correction methods. However, none of the technique is applied in routine clinical Tc-99m SPECT imaging. The...
