Abstract

Pengukuran kuantitatif dilakukan menggunakan data SPECT untuk mengukur saiz dan menganggar jumlah aktiviti radionuklid di dalam sesuatu organ atau lesi. Foton terserak pada imej merupakan masalah utama untuk memperolehi pengukuran kuantitatif yang tepat. Tujuan kajian ini dilakukan adalah untuk mengkaji kesan penuras fizikal terhadap kualiti imej di dalam pengimejan kuantitatif SPECT. An absolute quantitation can be made on SPECT data to accurately measure the volume and estimate total radionuclide activity in the organ or lesion. The major problem to produce an accurate quantitation is the contamination of SPECT images by scattered photons. The aim of the study is to investigate the effect of physical filters on image quality in quantitative SPECT imaging.
