  • Patent number: 11759162
    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to removing scatter from a SPECT scan by utilizing a radiative transfer equation (RTE) method. An attenuation map and emission map are acquired for generating scatter sources maps and scatter on detectors using the RTE method. The estimated scatter on detectors can be removed to produce an image of a SPECT scan with less scatter. Both first-order and multiple-order scatter can be estimated and removed. Additionally, scatter caused by multiple tracers can be determined and removed.
