Maximum Likelihood (ML) estimation based Expectation Maximization (EM) [IEEE Trans Med Imag, MI-1 (2) (1982) 113] reconstruction algorithm has shown to provide good quality reconstruction for positron emission tomography (PET). Our previous work [IEEE Trans Med Imag, 7(4) (1988) 273; Proc IEEE EMBS
Single photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) is now widely used as one of the tools in evaluating cerebral blood flow (CBF). The authors report the CBF changes in childhood hydrocephalus. Five pediatric cases studied by 123I-IM SPECT in children are presented. The authors counted radioacti
Clinical Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) is a scanning technique which acquires gamma-camera images ('projections') over a range of angles around a patient. These projections allow the reconstruction of cross sectional ('tomographic') images of the gamma-radiating pharmaceutical d
Functional neuroimaging with SPET and PET offers the opportunity to visualize brain function either in terms of blood flow and metabolism or receptor function using specific ligands. SPET is a more widely available and cheaper technology than PET. Continuously developing and being refined, this tech
## Abstract We propose a new method for reconstruction of images in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), when the activity distribution of the object is timeβvarying. The activity evolution is modeled with the firstβorder Markov model, and linear observation model is used to characte
