Jude Dineley, PhD[email protected]Nuclear MedicineUltralow-dose CT enables PET correctionThe use of ultralow-dose CT scans for attenuation correction and respiratory gating of PET scans is feasible, concluded a recent study published in Physics in Medicine and Biology. Doses an order of magnitude lower than existing low-dose CT protocols on PET/CT scanners were achieved.February 12, 2012Nuclear MedicineFully automated gating: A new era for PET?A fully automated algorithm that can extract a respiratory signal from raw PET data has the potential to make gating a more convenient -- and, therefore, more widely adopted -- utility in clinical PET, according to an article published in Medical Physics.November 24, 2010Page 1 of 1Top StoriesBreastARRS: Breast RT doesn't impact presence of breast arterial calcificationsServiceIMV: PET/CT service contracts are a key aspect of system ownershipWomens ImagingARRS: Get involved with breast health advocacyCTARRS: The state of lung imagingWomens ImagingARRS: Most women under 40 have no imaging before breast cancer diagnosis
