Evaluation of Acceptance Angle in Iodine-131 Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography Imaging with Monte Carlo Simulation

INTRODUCTION: In iodine-131 (I-131) imaging, the image quality is degraded by scatter and penetration in a collimator. In this work, we assessed the penetrated and the scattered photon fractions in the photopeak energy window using Monte Carlo Simulation code. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The Siemens Medi...
