We devised a method which allowed the triple energy window (TEW) method to be applied
for Compton-scatter correction in conventional single photon emission computed …

This study evaluates a deconvolution algorithm which compensates for Compton scattering
in SPECT images. Using Monte Carlo methods, the scattered and non-scattered …

In single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), Compton scattering produces a
background that degrades the image quality and contributes erroneously to quantitative …

In single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT), Compton scattered photons
degrade image contrast and cause erroneous regional activity quantification. A predictor …
