Abstract | 「要旨」PETにおける3次元(3D)収集において2次元(2D)収集より画質の向上が期待できる放射能濃度の範囲を複数の直径と長さのファントムを用いた計数率特性の実験により求めた. 画質の評価はNoise Equivalent Count Rate(NECR)を指標とした. その結果20 cm直径, 15 cm長さのファントムに対しては, 1.2μCi/ml以上で3Dより2DのほうがNECRは高くなった. 30 cm直径, 15cm長さのファントムに対しては, 0.7μCi/ml以上で2Dの方が高くなることがわかった. 14cm直径, 長さ25 cmのファントムに対する3DのNECRは, 長さ15 cmに比べピークが低くなった. これらの結果より, 投与量が少ない場合は3D収集は有効であるが, 一定濃度以上では2Dの方が画質が良くなることが明らかになった. 直径の大きな部位や長い部位では, より低い濃度で3Dの有効性がなくなることがわかった. |

Abstract | [Summary]We obtained the concentration range of better S/N in 3D than 2D acquisition by measuring count rate for phantoms of different size and length. We used noise equivalent count rate(NECR)for evaluation of S/N of images. For 20 cm diameter 15cm length cylindrical phantom, NECR of 2D was higher than that of 3D more than 1.2μCi/ml. For 30 cm diameter 15 cm length cylindrical phantom, NECR of 2D was higher than that of 3D more than 0.7 μCi/ml. For 14 cm diameter 25 cm length cylindrical phantom, NECR of 3D was lower than that of 25 cm length phantom. With these results, though 3D is useful when administered dose is small, image quality of 2D becomes better than 3D more than a certain concentration. For the larger diameter or longer object, the advantage of 3D is diminished at lower concentration. |
