Typical Performance Values for a Conventional SPECT System

No. of detector heads2
Field of view40 × 55 cm
Energy resolution9.50%
Intrinsic spatial resolution3.8 mm (FWHM)
Planar count sensitivity (LEHR)190 cps/MBq (95 cps/MBq per head)
SPECT spatial resolution (LEHR)10.5 mm (FWHM)
  • LEHR = low energy, high resolution; FWHM = full width at half maximum; cps = counts per second.
