    摘要: A positron emission tomography (PET) apparatus according to an embodiment includes a plurality of PET detector rings (101, 601, 701, 901, 1001, 1101) and a processing unit (307). The plurality of PET detector rings (101, 601, 701, 901, 1001, 1101) is configured to form a bore in which a subject is placed, and to be adjustable in position in an axial direction, the bore defining a field of view (FOV) of the apparatus. The processing unit 307) is configured to obtain information regarding a PET scan mode, and to adjust, based on the information regarding the PET scan mode, position of each of the plurality of PET detector rings (101, 601, 701, 901, 1001, 1101) from a first position to a second position in the axial direction.

    摘要: A positron emission tomography "PET" apparatus (1100) according to an embodiment includes a PET detector (100), an acquisition unit (1170) and a calculation unit (1170). The PET detector (100) comprises a plurality of arrayed rings in each of which a plurality of detector crystals (105) are arrayed. The acquisition unit (1170) acquires a first crystal efficiency for each detector crystal (105) based on a measured gamma ray emitted from a line source, a second crystal efficiency for each detector crystal, which is calculated based on a gamma ray from a cylinder source, and a third crystal efficiency for each detector crystal, which is calculated based on a gamma ray from the line source. The calculation unit (1170) calculates a fourth crystal efficiency for each detector crystal based on the first crystal efficiency, the second crystal efficiency, and the third crystal efficiency.
