Accelerated Monte Carlo based simultaneous 99mTc/123I SPECT reconstruction
Abstract
In simultaneous dual isotope breast SPECT studies using 123I labelled Z-MIVE and 99mTc-sestamibi, 123I labelled Z-MIVE not only detects the presence of estrogen receptor (ER) but also thought to complement 99mTc-sestamibi in differentiating between benign and malignant breast lesions for patients with breast cancer. The major concern in simultaneous 99mTc/123I SPECT is the significant crosstalk contamination between the different isotopes used. …
