Effect of lead filters on the performance of a neuro-pet tomograph operated without Septa
The value of using lead filters to improve the quality of PET data has been investigated for a CTI/Siemens 953B brain scanner operated without septa. The filters consisted of sheets of thickness 0.5mm and 1.0mm and axial width 18cm which were placed around the outer surface of the patient port. Th...
