   Keywords : Medical physics; PET CT; PET MRI; OSEM; BPL; NEMA IQ; positron emission tomography; magnetic resonance imaging; computed tomography; ordered Subset Expectation Maximization; The Bayesian Penalized Likelihood;

   Abstract : Aim: To study how reconstruction parameters affect the positron emission tomography (PET) image quality and quantitative results for the different lesion to background radioactivity ratios in three different PET systems. Introduction: Multimodality imaging that combines magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) with a PET system can produce medical images containing both functional and anatomical information.

3. 2. Quantification of cerebral blood flow with 15O-water PET : A comparison study between PET/CT and PET/MR and two different blood sampling instruments

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för fysik; Umeå universitet/Diagnostisk radiologi

   Keywords : Cerebral Blood Flow; CBF; oxygen-15-labelled water; PET CT; PET MR; Quantification of CBF; Image Derived Input Function; IDIF; Blood Sampled Input Function; BSIF; Arterial Input Function; AIF; Tracer Kinetic Modelling; Single Tissue Compartmental Model; 1TCM;

   Abstract : Cerebral blood flow quantification is a vital diagnostic tool for disease monitoring and used for diagnosing a variation of pathological conditions. The human brain requires roughly about 20 % of the total cardiac output to sustain normal functioning, hence the perfusion of blood is an important factor to deliver oxygenated blood. READ MORE
