Background: the digital positron emission tomography/computer tomography (PET/CT)
scanner with digital photon counting (DPC) technique promises a shorter scan time …

The digital PET/CT scanner with digital photon-counting technique promises a shorter scan
time, improved small-lesion detectability, and reduced radiation dose for the PET and CT …

The administered dose of 18F-FDG can be greatly reduced using body mass index (BMI)
instead of the patient's weight, without diminishing image quality. We have focused on …

Purpose: The aim of this study was to assess image quality and lesion detectability acquired
with a digital Positron Emission Tomography/Computed Tomography (PET/CT) Siemens …

2059 Objectives: Technology and diagnostic innovations are continuously advancing in
medical imaging. Limitations arise in the standard analog system of standard PET/CT …

Objective The purpose of this study was to compare image quality and lesion detection
capability between a digital and an analog PET/CT system in oncological patients. Materials …

Rationale and Objectives To investigate radiation dose reduction during whole body
fluorodeoxyglucose (18 F-FDG) positron emission tomographic (PET)/computed tomography …

Obtaining consistent high image quality is desirable for clinical positron emission
tomography (PET). Body morphology may impact image quality. The purpose of this study …

Purpose To investigate the use of weight-based protocols during full-and half-body
fluorodeoxyglucose F 18 (FDG) positron emission tomography–computed tomography (PET …

2010 Objectives: In 18F-FDG PET/CT studies, vendors recommend FDG dose based on
patient's weight (W); however, our facility's imaging protocol is based on Body Mass Index …
