摘要:
A SPECT apparatus has a two-dimensional detector that detects radiations from RIs in a patient via a collimator. A correction processing unit corrects plural two-dimensional projection distributions with different projection angles, which are detected by the detector, on a three-dimensional frequency space according to plural correction functions corresponding to plural distances, respectively. Consequently, a fall in spatial resolution having dependency on distances between the respective RIs and the detector is reduced. A reconfiguring unit reconfigures a three-dimensional RI distribution from the plural two-dimensional projection distributions corrected.

According to the present invention, sub-windows using a TEW technique are centered to energies corresponding to 1/n and 1/m of maximal photon number in a standard energy spectrum without any scattering component. It is thus possible to improve a count coefficiency, while broadening a main window to a maximal possible extent, without underestimating the scattering component and crosstalk component.

A method and an apparatus for reconstructing SPECT image capable of improving the SPECT image resolution. The apparatus includes: a detector, including a fan-beam collimator, for detecting gamma (.gamma.) rays emitted from a radio isotope injected into a biological body; a rotation unit for effecting relative rotation between the biological body and the detector about a center of rotation to thereby acquire projection data from a different direction; a first reconstructing unit for convoluting the projection data obtained from the detector, by a first convolution function, and for back-projecting the convoluted projection data to a specific region which lies in a sufficiently close vicinity of the detector; a second reconstructing unit for convoluting the projection data by a second convolution function, and for back-projecting the secondly convoluted projection data to another specific region; and display means for displaying thereon a distribution image reconstructed by the first and second reconstructing units.

The CT image processor determines the position of the liver in the body of a subject based on CT image. The PET image processor determines the position of the liver in the body of a subject based on PET image. The CT image processor calculates the displacement in the positions of the liver determined by the CT and PET images. The CT image processor extracts the contour of the liver from a CT image. The CT image processor generates a correction CT image by modifying a CT image by moving a CT image to decrease the displacement of the extracted contour in the internal area. The PET image processor performs decrease correction based on the modified CT image.

A nuclear medical diagnostic equipment wherein radiation which is emitted by a nuclide administered into the body of a patient is detected as projection data by a gamma camera, and an image which indicates the distribution of the nuclide within the body of the patient is obtained on the basis of the projection data. The equipment comprises a rotation unit which rotates the radiation detector round the patient, a respiration identification unit which identifies breathing of the patient and non-breathing thereof based on breath holding, a data storage unit in which the radiation detection data acquired by the radiation detector are stored in an identifiable manner on the basis of a result of the identification by the respiration identification unit, and an image generation unit which generates the image from the radiation detection data stored in the data storage unit on the basis of the result of the identification by the respiration identification unit.

In a nuclear medicine imaging apparatus as a medical image diagnosis apparatus according to one embodiment, a PET detector is configured to detect a gamma ray emitted from a nuclide introduced into a body of a subject. A PET image reconstruction unit is configured to reconstruct a nuclear medicine image (PET image) as a medical image from the gamma ray projection data created based on the gamma ray detected by the PET detector using successive approximation. A controller is configured to control the PET image reconstruction unit to change the parameter used in the successive approximation depending on information regarding the scanning region in the body of the subject.

A radiodiagnostic apparatus includes a data collection unit, a primary correction unit, a body contour detection unit, a secondary correction unit, and a reconstruction unit. The data collection unit collects a first projection data obtained at a projection angle within a projection angle range in which the whole portion of an object is within an effective acquisition field of a detector, and a second projection data obtained at a projection angle within a projection angle range in which a part of a truncated portion is out of the effective acquisition field of the detector, when the effective acquisition field of the detector is defined as a range limited by a collimator. The primary correction unit calculates a plurality of primary extrapolation expression candidates for correcting the second projection data so as to obtain third projection data candidates formed from the second projection data and the plurality of primary extrapolation expression candidates and for obtaining third projection data from the plurality of third projection data candidates. The body contour detection unit detects position information of a body contour in the second projection data. The secondary correction unit acquires a secondary extrapolation expression and for obtaining fourth projection data. The reconstruction unit reconstructs images on a slice-by-slice basis on the basis of the first projection data and the fourth projection data.
