Aim Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) software for bone scintigrams have recently been
introduced as a clinical quality assurance tool. The purpose of this study was to compare the …

Purpose A high‐energy‐resolution whole‐body SPECT‐CT device (NM/CT 870 CZT; C‐SPECT)
equipped with a CZT detector has been developed and is being used clinically. A …

Background Two novel methods of image reconstruction, xSPECT Quant (xQ) and xSPECT
Bone (xB), that use an ordered subset conjugate gradient minimizer (OSCGM) for SPECT/CT …

The choice of injected dose of 18 F-FDG and acquisition time is important in obtaining
consistently high-quality PET images. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal …

IQ·SPECT (Siemens Medical Solutions) is a solution for high-sensitivity and short-time
acquisition imaging of the heart for a variable angle general purpose gamma camera. It consists …

Our objective was to clarify intracranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow dynamics in normal-pressure
hydrocephalus (NPH). Frequency analyses of CSF flow measured with phase-…

Background Phase analysis of gated myocardial perfusion single-photon emission computed
tomography (SPECT) for assessment of left ventricular (LV) dyssynchrony was investigated …

Objective A novel multifocal collimator, IQ-SPECT (Siemens) consists of SMARTZOOM,
cardio-centric and 3D iterative SPECT reconstruction and makes it possible to perform MPI scans …

Objective Although xSPECT Bone (xB) provides quantitative single-photon emission computed
tomography (SPECT) high-resolution images, patients’ burden remains high due to long …

Aim Automated segmentation of the skeleton is the first step for quantitative analysis and
computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) of whole-body bone scans. The purpose of this study was to …
