Abstract:
PURPOSE:
Prostate imaging is one of the major application of hybrid PET/MRI systems. Inaccurate attenuation maps (µ-maps) derived by direct segmentation (SEG) in which the cortical bone is ignored and the volume of the air in cavities is underestimated is the main challenge of commercial PET/MRI systems for the quantitative analysis of the pelvic region. The present study considered the cortical bone and air cavity along with soft tissue, fat, and background air in the µ-map of the pelvic region using a method based on SEG. The proposed method uses a dedicated imaging technique that increases the contrast between regions and a hybrid segmentation method to classify MR images based on intensity and morphologic characteristics of tissues, such as symmetry and similarity of bony structures.
PROCEDURES:
Ten healthy volunteers underwent MRI and ultra-low dose CT imaging. The dedicated MR imaging technique uses the short echo time (STE) based on the conventional sequencing implemented on a clinical 1.5T MRI scanner. The generation of a µ-map comprises the following steps: (1) bias field correction; (2) hybrid segmentation (HSEG), including segmenting images into clusters of cortical bone-air, soft tissue, and fat using spatial fuzzy c-means (SFCM), and separation of cortical bone and internal air cavities using morphologic characteristics; (3) the active contour approach for the separation of background air; and (4) the generation of a five-class μ-map for cortical bone, internal air cavity, soft tissue, fat tissue, and background air. Validation was done by comparison with segmented CT images.
RESULTS:
The Dice and sensitivity metrics of cortical bone structures and internal air cavities were 72 ± 11 and 66 ± 13 and 73 ± 10 and 68 ± 20 %, respectively. High correlation was observed between CT and HSEG-based µ-maps (R 2 > 0.99) and the corresponding sinograms (R 2 > 0.98).
CONCLUSIONS:
Currently, pelvis µ-maps provided by the current PET/MRI systems and the ultra-short echo time and atlas-based methods tend to be inaccurate. The proposed method acceptably generated a five-class μ-map using only one image.

Abstract
PURPOSE:
We developed a high performance portable gamma camera platform dedicated to identification of sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) and radio-guided surgery for cancer patients. In this work, we present the performance characteristics of SURGEOSIGHT-I, the first version of this platform that can intra-operatively provide high-resolution images of the surveyed areas.
METHODS:
At the heart of this camera, there is a 43×43 array of pixelated sodium-activated cesium iodide (CsI(Na)) scintillation crystal with 1×1mm(2) pixel size and 5mm thickness coupled to a Hamamatsu H8500 flat-panel multi-anode (64 channels) photomultiplier tube. The probe is equipped with a hexagonal parallel-hole lead collimator with 1.2mm holes. The detector, collimator, and the associated front-end electronics are encapsulated in a common housing referred to as head.
RESULTS:
Our results show a count rate of ∼41kcps for 20% count loss. The extrinsic energy resolution was measured as 20.6% at 140keV. The spatial resolution and the sensitivity of the system on the collimator surface was measured as 2.2mm and 142cps/MBq, respectively. In addition, the integral and differential uniformity, after uniformity correction, in useful field-of-view (UFOV) were measured 4.5% and 4.6%, respectively.
CONCLUSIONS:
This system can be used for a number of clinical applications including SLN biopsy and radiopharmaceutical-guided surgery.

Abstract
PURPOSE:
Given increasing efforts in biomedical research utilizing molecular imaging methods, development of dedicated high-performance small-animal SPECT systems has been growing rapidly in the last decade. In the present work, we propose and assess an alternative concept for SPECT imaging enabling desktop open-gantry imaging of small animals.
METHODS:
The system, PERSPECT, consists of an imaging desk, with a set of tilted detector and pinhole collimator placed beneath it. The object to be imaged is simply placed on the desk. Monte Carlo (MC) and analytical simulations were utilized to accurately model and evaluate the proposed concept and design. Furthermore, a dedicated image reconstruction algorithm, finite-aperture-based circular projections (FABCP), was developed and validated for the system, enabling more accurate modeling of the system and higher quality reconstructed images. Image quality was quantified as a function of different tilt angles in the acquisition and number of iterations in the reconstruction algorithm. Furthermore, more complex phantoms including Derenzo, Defrise, and mouse whole body were simulated and studied.
RESULTS:
The sensitivity of the PERSPECT was 207 cps/MBq. It was quantitatively demonstrated that for a tilt angle of 30°, comparable image qualities were obtained in terms of normalized squared error, contrast, uniformity, noise, and spatial resolution measurements, the latter at ∼0.6 mm. Furthermore, quantitative analyses demonstrated that 3 iterations of FABCP image reconstruction (16 subsets/iteration) led to optimally reconstructed images.
CONCLUSIONS:
The PERSPECT, using a novel imaging protocol, can achieve comparable image quality performance in comparison with a conventional pinhole SPECT with the same configuration. The dedicated FABCP algorithm, which was developed for reconstruction of data from the PERSPECT system, can produce high quality images for small-animal imaging via accurate modeling of the system as incorporated in the forward- and back-projection steps. Meanwhile, the developed MC model and the analytical simulator of the system can be applied for further studies on development and evaluation of the system.

Abstract
Grid therapy is a treatment technique that has been introduced for patients with advanced bulky tumors. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of the radiation sensitivity of the tumors and the design of the grid blocks on the clinical response of grid therapy. The Monte Carlo simulation technique is used to determine the dose distribution through a grid block that was used for a Varian 2100C linear accelerator. From the simulated dose profiles, the therapeutic ratio (TR) and the equivalent uniform dose (EUD) for different types of tumors with respect to their radiation sensitivities were calculated. These calculations were performed using the linear quadratic (LQ) and the Hug-Kellerer (H-K) models. The results of these calculations have been validated by comparison with the clinical responses of 232 patients from different publications, who were treated with grid therapy. These published results for different tumor types were used to examine the correlation between tumor radiosensitivity and the clinical response of grid therapy. Moreover, the influence of grid design on their clinical responses was investigated by using Monte Carlo simulations of grid blocks with different hole diameters and different center-to-center spacing. The results of the theoretical models and clinical data indicated higher clinical responses for the grid therapy on the patients with more radioresistant tumors. The differences between TR values for radioresistant cells and radiosensitive cells at 20 Gy and 10 Gy doses were up to 50% and 30%, respectively. Interestingly, the differences between the TR values with LQ model and H-K model were less than 4%. Moreover, the results from the Monte Carlo studies showed that grid blocks with a hole diameters of 1.0 cm and 1.25 cm may lead to about 19% higher TR relative to the grids with hole diameters smaller than 1.0 cm or larger than 1.25 cm (with 95% confidence interval). In sum-mary, the results of this study indicate that grid therapy is more effective for tumors with radioresistant characteristics than radiosensitive tumors.

Abstract
Objectives:
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of time-of-flight (TOF) and point-spread function (PSF) for quantitative and qualitative PET/CT image analysis in relation to decrease respiratory artifact in diaphragmatic region.
Methods:
29 patients with uptake time 61±2 min and injection of 327.5 MBq (range 261–350 MBq) 18F-FDG were scanned with Discovery 690 GE PET/CT scanner, equipped with 64-slice CT. All of the lesions were in the diaphragmatic region including: the lung lower lobes, liver and stomach in patients with extended white band artefact. For quantitative measurement NEMA phantom were also utilized. The PET images were retrospectively reconstructed using HD (Fully 3D Iterative Reconstruction)+PSF and TOF+ PSF algorithm with various iterations, subsets and post smoothing filters. A semi-quantitative analysis was performed using SUVmax and SUVmean with 50% threshold. We also considered image quality using coefficient of variance (COV) in the liver in clinical study, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast to background measurements in each lesions. The PET/CT images reviewed by two expert physicians.
Results:
In the phantom study, SUVmean illustrated the more convenient value in related to SUVmax when TOF+PSF algorithm applied with increase of post filter from 4.4 mm to 6.4mm. In clinical study, the COV was decreased 7.4%±1.3% when TOF+PSF were compared with non-TOF image. The SUVmax trend to higher value with relative difference 11.3% (range: 0.5%–25.1%) when TOF and non-TOF images were evaluated. It was interesting that using appropriate TOF reconstruction parameter increased the SNR up 65.6% (Range: 7.0%–194.7%). The combination of TOF and PSF decreased the lesion size on PET images 33.0%, 25.7% and 24.5% in sagital, coronal and axial view respectively when compared with HD+PSF algorithm. According to balance among the SNR, contrast, noise and visual assessment, the optimal images were obtained with TOF+PSF with FWHM between 5.2 to 6.4 mm.
Conclusion:
A little overestimation in SUVmax versus to SUV mean 50% was observed, when PSF with combination of either VPHD or TOF was used. TOF with PSF improved white band artifact in diaphragmatic region remarkably, increased lesion delectability, and altered lesion size in PET images. It is noteworthy that the variation in SUV and lesion size is strongly dependent to the proximity of the lesions to the artefact region and it is highly recommended that to attain optimal image quality, combination of low iteration number and utilizing appropriate Gaussian filter is necessary because noise and false positive findings could be dominant with small-FWHM post filter.
