Abstract Purpose The new GE Discovery STE and Discovery VCT respectively combine 16-
slice and 64-slice CT with PET. The PET scanner has a new BGO detector block of 8× 6 …

The objective of this study is to characterize the performance of the preclinical avalanche
photodiode (APD)-based LabPET-8™ subsystem of the fully integrated trimodality …

The NEMA NU 2-2001 protocol has been especially designed for the performance
evaluation of whole-body positron emission tomography (PET) measurements with scanners …

PETbox4 is a new, fully tomographic bench top PET scanner dedicated to high sensitivity
and high resolution imaging of mice. This manuscript characterizes the performance of the …

We measured count rates and scatter fraction on the Discovery STE PET/CT scanner in
conventional 2D and 3D acquisition modes, and in a partial collimation mode between 2D …

Methods: Point-sourcemeasurements are performed to determine spatial resolution over the
scanner FOV, and cylindrical phantom distributions are used to determine the sensitivity …

We compared the impact of 2-dimensional (2D) and fully 3-dimensional (3D) acquisition
modes on the performance of human observers in detecting and localizing tumors in whole …

In this work, we compare two commercial positron emission tomography (PET) scanners
installed at CIEMAT (Madrid, Spain): the ClearPET and the rPET-1. These systems have …

A new combined lutetium oxyorthosilicate (LSO) PET/CT scanner with an extended axial
field-of-view (FOV) of 21.8 cm has been developed (Biograph TruePoint PET/CT with TrueV; …

This study evaluated the performance of the Biograph Vision digital PET/CT system
according to the NEMA NU 2-2012 standard (published by the National Electrical …
