2017 Imaging for Physicists Coursebook
2D-/3D-PET
2D-PET • Geometric collimation with septa • Data sampling only with θ=0° • Lower overall sensitivity • Lower fraction of scattered photons
3D-PET • Projections at polar angles θ>0° measured • Increased sensitivity • Higher scatter fraction • Special
reconstruction algorithms are necessary
