Like the first edition, this book explains the Monte Carlo method and the principles behind SPECT and PET imaging, introduces the reader to some Monte Carlo software currently in use, and gives the reader a detailed idea of some possible applications of Monte Carlo in current research in SPECT and PET. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eNew chapters in this edition cover codes and applications in pre-clinical PET and SPECT. The book explains how Monte Carlo methods and software packages can be applied to evaluate scatter in SPECT and PET imaging, collimation, and image deterioration. A guide for researchers and students developing methods to improve image resolution, it also demonstrates how Monte Carlo techniques can be used to simulate complex imaging systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Ljungberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/06\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.20h x 6.20w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781439841099\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMichael Ljungberg\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Medical Radiation Physics, Department of Radition Physics, Lund University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSven-Erik Strand\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Medical Radiation Physics, Department of Radition Physics, Lund University.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"CRC Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44707531292787,"sku":"9781439841099","price":336.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_19d7bf0e-5472-4460-a19f-fe431cecc4b1.jpg?v=1775840475","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/monte-carlo-calculations-in-nuclear-medicine-applications-in-diagnostic-imaging-9781439841099","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
