SPECT• Instrumentation• Imaging PrincipleEL5823 Nuclear Imaging Yao Wang, Polytechnic U., Brooklyn 30
SPECT Instrumentation• Similar to CT, uses a rotating Anger camera to detectphotons traversing paths with different directions• Recent advances uses multiple Anger cameras (multipleheads), reducing scanning time (below 30 minutes)• Anger cameras in SPECT must have significantly betterperformances than for planar scintigraphy to avoidreconstruction artifactsEL5823 Nuclear Imaging Yao Wang, Polytechnic U., Brooklyn 31
