Correction of collimator-dependent differences in the heart-to-mediastinum ratio in (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine cardiac sympathetic imaging: Determination of conversion equations using point-source imaging

BACKGROUND: Septal penetration causes collimator-dependent differences in the heart-to-mediastinum (H/M) ratio in (123)I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) cardiac imaging. We investigated generally applicable methods to correct such differences. METHODS AND RESULTS: Four hours after (123)I-MIBG injecti...
