Monte carlo study of the effect of collimator thickness on T-99m source response in single photon emission computed tomography
In single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), the collimator is a crucial element of the imaging chain and controls the noise resolution tradeoff of the collected data. The current study is an evaluation of the effects of different thicknesses of a low-energy high-resolution (LEHR) collimat...
