摘要： According to the present invention, sub-windows using a TEW technique are centered to energies corresponding to 1/n and 1/m of maximal photon number in a standard energy spectrum without any scattering component. It is thus possible to improve a count coefficiency, while broadening a main window to a maximal possible extent, without underestimating the scattering component and crosstalk component.

摘要： A diagnostic apparatus for nuclear medicine capable of performing an operation of counting gamma rays for a TCT simultaneously with an operation of counting gamma rays for an SPECT has a SPECT counter for counting, as the number of photons, gamma rays passed through a SPECT energy window centered at a photoelectric peak of the SPECT gamma rays and a TCT counter for counting, as the number of photons, gamma rays passed through a TCT energy window centered at a photoelectric peak of the TCT gamma rays. The number of photons of the gamma rays passed through the SPECT energy window contains the number of photons of K-X rays generated due to a photoelectric effect produced by the TCT gamma rays in collimators of the detector. A K-X ray processor estimates the number of photons of mixed K-X rays on the basis of the number of photons counted at the TCT counter. The K-X ray correction processor performs K-X ray correction on the photon number counted at the SPECT counter on the basis of the photon number of the estimated K-X rays. Since the number of photons passed through the TCT energy window and number of photons of K-X rays passed through the SPECT energy window have a very strong correlation from the standpoint of probability statistics, the accuracy with which the number of photons of the K-X rays passed through the SPECT energy window is estimated is very high. It is, therefore, possible to effectively reduce the K-X rays passed through the SPECT energy window.

摘要： SPECT data is collected to produce a SPECT image and transmission CT projection data is collected to produce a transmission CT image. The contours of the body of a subject under examination is extracted from the SPECT image. Using data representing the contours of the body, a portion of the transmission CT projection data is approximated by a curve. The sum of the curve-approximated transmission CT projection data and the center of gravity of the transmission CT image are computed. The truncated portion is estimated from the sum of the transmission CT projection data and the center of gravity of the transmission CT image and the transmission CT projection data is then corrected. The correction of the transmission CT projection data involves producing (extrapolation) anew a curve represented by a quadratic polynomial for that region (truncated region) of the transmission CT projection data which has been approximated tentatively by an ellipse in order to determine the sum and the center of gravity.

摘要： First RI having a first photo-peak and a second photo-peak and second RI having a third photo-peak close to the second photo-peak are simultaneously dosed to a test body. A first injection number is the number of energy injections in the vicinity of the first photo-peak from first RI. A second injection number is obtained as a sum of the third injection number in the vicinity of the second photo-peak from the first RI, and the fourth injection number of energy injections in the vicinity of the third photo-peak from the second RI. The third injection number is obtained on the basis of a predetermined coefficient and the first injection number. Therefore, the injection number of all .gamma. rays emitted from the first RI is obtained on the basis of the third injection number and the first injection number. In addition, all the .gamma. rays emitted from the second RI can be obtained on the basis of the third injection number and the second injection number. The problem of cross-talk can be solved thereby.

摘要： A nuclear medicine diagnostic apparatus, particularly involving emission computed tomography, wherein absorption correction is performed by a gamma ray source including a plurality of line sources arrayed in a common plane. Each line source produces a radiation distribution having a peak and defining a half-width distance at which the radiation from the line source is attenuated by one-half. The plurality of line sources are arranged at a pitch equal to the half-width distance or an integral multiple of the half-width distance. In one embodiment, a serpentine line source is used having straight line portions and a plurality of bent portions, with the straight line portions arrayed parallel to each other at a pitch equal to the half-width distance or an integral multiple of the half-width distance.

摘要： In a scintillation camera apparatus, a gamma-ray scattering signal component is removed from gamma-ray spectral energy distribution data. A scattering component removing method first detects an entire radiation emitted from a radioisotope having a specific energy level and injected into a biological body under medical examination to produce an entire radiation detecting signal. Then only first partial radiation from the radioisotope passing through a first energy range determined in relation to the specific energy level of the radioisotope is detected, thereby producing a first count value of the partial radiation. Partial second and third radiation from the radioisotope passing through second and third energy ranges positioned at both ends of the first energy range and also each having a width narrower than that of the first energy range are then detected, thereby producing second and third count values of the second and third partial radiation. These first to third radiation detecting steps are simultaneously performed. An amount of a scattering radiation component contained in the first partial radiation from the radioisotope passing through the first energy range based on both the second and third count values of the second and third partial radiation is then inferred. The amount of the scattering signal component is then subtracted from the first partial radiation passing through the first energy range, whereby the scattering signal component is removed from the entire radiation detecting signal.

摘要： The CT image processor determines the position of the liver in the body of a subject based on CT image. The PET image processor determines the position of the liver in the body of a subject based on PET image. The CT image processor calculates the displacement in the positions of the liver determined by the CT and PET images. The CT image processor extracts the contour of the liver from a CT image. The CT image processor generates a correction CT image by modifying a CT image by moving a CT image to decrease the displacement of the extracted contour in the internal area. The PET image processor performs decrease correction based on the modified CT image.
