Partial volume correction for improved PET quantification in (18)F-NaF imaging of atherosclerotic plaques

BACKGROUND: Accurate quantification of plaque imaging using (18)F-NaF PET requires partial volume correction (PVC). METHODS: PVC of PET data was implemented by the use of a local projection (LP) method. LP-based PVC was evaluated with an image quality (NEMA) and with a thorax phantom with “plaque-ty...
