Estimating Image Quality for Future Generations of TOF PET Scanners
Nuclear Science Symposium and Medical Imaging Conference（2013）
Abstract
Images taken with time-of-flight (TOF) positron emission tomography (PET) scanners are of improved quality compared to equivalent non-TOF images. This improvement is dependent on the scanner time resolution. The present generation of commercial TOF scanners has a time resolution in the range of 500-600 ps full width half maximum. In this work we investigate how the image characteristics will impro...
