Image Reconstruction,plied, of which the OSEM is most widely used because of the shorter time required in image reconstruction. An example of the OSEM method is illustrated. The 3D reconstruction of images from 2D data is described. Corrections for partial volume effect on images are made by using recovery coefficients.

FDA Regulations for PET Radiopharmaceuticals,pounding of PET radiopharmaceuticals. The certification and training requirements for physicians and technologists in different imaging modalities are elucidated. A brief description of accreditation of PET imaging facilities is presented.

LINE

NRC Regulations for Radiation Protection in PET,nd radiation safety officer. Different pertinent rules and regulations for using PET radiopharmaceuticals in humans are elucidated in 10CFR35. The Department of Transportation (DOT) requirements for transportation of radioactive material and essentials of .F-FDG distribution by commercial PET facilities are presented.

小争吵

PET Scanning Systems,ong with those of PET/CT and PET/MR in the chapter. The specifications of a few commercial scanners are provided in tables. Also included in the description are three small-animal scanners and their specifications along with mobile PET/CT scanners. The principle of mobile PET/CT is outlined.

Performance Characteristics of PET Scanners, count rate, method of corrections for random and scatter counts, and daily and weekly quality control tests for PET, CT, and MR scanners are described. Acceptance testing for newly installed PET scanners following the NEMA standard is elucidated.

photopsia

Cyclotron and Production of PET Radionuclides, produced by nuclear reactions. These are separated and purified by chemical methods in hot cells and are then utilized in the synthesis of desired radiopharmaceuticals in synthesis boxes for clinical use. Target preparation, individual radionuclide production, and their yield are described.

mydriatic

Reimbursement for PET Procedures,e been discussed. Reimbursement for hospital inpatients and outpatients are elucidated. Payment to physicians is based on their work, expense, and malpractice insurance, each of which is assigned a relative value unit based on the nature of the service and geographical location. How to submit a claim for reimbursement is discussed.
