For 3D PET normalization methods, a balance must be struck between statistical accuracy and individual detector or line-of-response (LOR) fidelity. Methods with potentially the best LOR accuracy tend to be statistically poor, while techniques to improve the statistical quality tend to reduce the individual detector fidelity. We have developed and implemented a 3D PET normalization method for our ECAT 953B scanner (Siemens/CTI) that determines the detector normalization factors (NFs) as a product of a four-dimensional matrix of measured geometric factors (GFs) and single detector efficiency factors.
