Multi‐angle acquisition and 3D composite reconstruction for organ‐targeted PET using planar detectors
The multi-angle acquisition method offers a promising approach to transform planar PET detector technology into a true tomographic organ-targeted PET system and to enable improvement in image quality while preserving a versatility inherent to planar detector technology. Future research will focus on optimizing the multi-angle imaging protocol, including adjustments to detector separations, number of acquisition angles, and reconstruction iterations, alongside incorporating TOF, and reconstruction with point spread function modeling to further improve image quality.
