Research Abstract |
Accuracy of quantitative myocardial blood flow(MBF) measurements using 3D-PET depends on activity distribution, especially outside filed-of-view(FOV) distribution. We investigated the influence on quantification of MBF by fundamental phantom experiments and a sophisticated Monte Carlo simulation. The effects of outside FOV activity were not critical for quantification of MBF. Especially, a MBF measurement by O-15 water was less insensitive to scatter originated from outside FOV activity.
