With the recent development in scatter and attenuation correction algorithms, dynamic single photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) cain potentially yield physiological parameters, with tracers exhibiting suitable kinetics such as thallium-201 (T1-201). a systematic way is proposed to investigate the minimum data acquisition times and sam;ling requirements for estimating physiological parameters with quantitative dynamic SPECT.Two different sampling schemes were investigated with Monte Carlo simulations: 1) continuous data collection for total study duration ranging from 30-240 min, 2) Continuous data collection for first 10-45 min followed by a delayed study at approximately 3 h, Tissue time activity curves with realistic noise were generated from a mean plasma time activity curve and rate constants (K-1 - k(4)) derived from T1-201 kinetic studies ire 16 dogs, Full dynamic sampling schedules DynSS) were compared to optimum sampling schedules (OSS).We found that OSS can reliably estimate the blood Wow related K-1 and V-d comparable to DynSS. A 30-min continuous collection was sufficient if only K-1 was of interest, A split session schedule of a 30-min dynamic followed by a static study at 3 h allowed reliable estimation of both K-1 and V-d avoiding the need for a prolonged (>60-min) continuous dynamic acquisition, The methodology developed should also be applicable to optimizing sampling schedules for ether SPECT tracers,
