多示踪剂成像可以为医学、生物和制药科学的明确诊断和研究提供有用的信息。单光子发射计算机断层扫描(SPECT)是广泛用于诊断或医学研究的核医学成像方式之一,具有多示踪剂成像能力。多示踪剂成像的缺点之一是来自其他伽马射线的串扰,这会影响重建图像。传统 SPECT 成像采用双能窗法和三能窗法等散射校正方法来减少串扰引起的背景。本研究提出了另一种减少串扰的方法。一些核素通过中间能级发射两种或多种伽马射线。因此,用符合法检测这些伽马射线使我们能够区分真实的伽马射线信号和背景信号。可以使用准直器在两条伽马射线的交点处估计核素位置。我们在此展示了使用 GAGG 探测器和平行孔准直器通过双光子符合方法同时进行 111In 和 177Lu 成像。双光子符合方法大大减少了其他伽马射线造成的背景,并提供比传统成像更高质量的图像。
Multi-tracer imaging can provide useful information in the definitive diagnosis and research of medical, biological, and pharmaceutical sciences. Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is one of the nuclear medicine imaging modalities widely used for diagnosis or medical research and has a multi-tracer imaging capability. One of the drawbacks of multi-tracer imaging is crosstalk from other gamma rays, which affects the reconstructed image. Scattering correction methods, such as the dual- and triple-energy window methods, are used for conventional SPECT imaging to reduce the background caused by the crosstalk. This study proposes another crosstalk reduction method. Some nuclides emit two or more gamma rays through intermediate levels. Thus, detecting these gamma rays with the coincidence method allows us to distinguish a true gamma ray signal and a background signal. The nuclide position can be estimated at the intersection of two gamma rays using collimators. We demonstrate herein simultaneous 111In and 177Lu imaging via the double-photon coincidence method using GAGG detectors and parallel hole collimators. The double-photon coincidence method greatly reduces the background caused by other gamma rays and offers higher-quality images than does conventional imaging.
