1980 Objectives Previous studies demonstrated that bithmus shields can reduce radiation
dose to breasts during CT scanning up to 55%. The purpose of the study was to determine …

314 Objectives We are constructing a dual-modality PET/mammography scanner (the
PET/X) for dedicated breast imaging. For quantitative imaging, eg to assess response to …

203 Objectives: A new high-resolution dedicated breast positron emission tomography
(dbPET), equipped with ring-shaped detectors, has been developed for the detection of …

1467 Objectives To evaluate the quality of quantitative values on our dedicated-breast PET
scanner (DB-PET) comparing to whole-body PET (WB-PET). Methods First, a pool phantom …

2014 Objectives: In this study we look at the use of bismuth in-plane shielding for the
reduction of CT dose to the radiosensitive breast tissue of ten pediatric females in respect to …

385 Objectives: High-resolution dedicated breast positron emission tomography (dbPET)
scanners equipped with ring-shaped detectors have been developed to identify early-stage …

1855 Objectives Simultaneous PET/MR breast imaging is a potentially attractive clinical
application of integrated PET/MR system. However, MR only breast coil is positioned in the …

2134 Objectives: We adapted a" Breast Holder"(BH) alignment device to immobilize the
breast in 3-D space in the prone position during PET-CT scanning. The BH decreases …

358 Objectives A goal in medical imaging is to use the lowest radiotracer doses while
maintaining optimal image quality. This study investigates the feasibility of reducing the 10 …
