Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we developed a quantitative measurement on a new small animal SPECT/CT scanners with a semiconductor detecotor.After assessment of performance on the scanners,seinsitivity of pinhole collimators was lower than that of parallel and slit collimators, while resolution was higher. Especially, eXplore speCZT CT120 was superior to another scanner on energy resolution. In addition, attenuation and resolution correction have kept quaitification of radioactive counts.However, we needed to develop new pinhole collimators for mice to yield higher resolution and for rats to yield higher sensitivity. The collimators provided 1.7 times resoulution for mice imaging and 2-3 times sensitivity for rats imaging.
