Accuracy of a whole‐body single‐photon emission computed tomography with a thallium‐bromide detector: Verification via Monte Carlo simulations
T-SPECT offers superior energy resolution and detection efficiency than C-SPECT. Moreover, T-SPECT can provide higher contrast resolution and sensitivity in clinical imaging with 99mTc and 177Lu. Furthermore, the Monte Carlo simulations are confirmed to be a valuable guide for the development of T-SPECT.
