Determination of the resolution limit of a whole body PET scanner using monte carlo simulations

Author

Abstract
We studied the resolution limit that can be obtained for a whole body PET scanner. The results were obtained using a Monte Carlo based simulation program. The influence of two parameters was investigated: the crystal pixel size and the number of layers used for Depth-Of-Interaction (DOI) correction.
