Abstract
Based on Kunyansky's and our previous work, an efficient, analytical solution to the reconstruction problem of myocardial perfusion SPECT has been developed that allows simultaneous compensation for non-uniform attenuation, scatter, and system-dependent resolution variation, as well as suppression of signal-dependent Poisson noise. The preliminary digital and Monte Carlo simulation results using a realistic human thoracic phantom demonstrate that, for parallel-beam geometry, the proposed analytical reconstruction scheme is computationally comparable to filtered backprojection and quantitatively equivalent to iterative maximum a posteriori expectation-maximization reconstruction.
