Abstract:
The separation of multiple PET tracers within an overlapped scan based on intrinsic difference of pharmacokinetics is challenging due to the limited SNR of PET measurements and high complexity of fitting models. This study developed a novel direct parametric reconstruction method by integrating a multi-tracer model with reduced number of fitting parameters into image reconstruction. To incorporate the multi-tracer model, we adopted EM surrogate functions for the optimization of the penalized log...     »
