Abstract

The invention provides a test method as well as a correction method and device for detection efficiency of a PET (positron emission tomography) system. The test method comprises steps as follows: using the PET system for first acquisition to obtain a first activity related factor affecting the detection efficiency; using the PET system for second acquisition to obtain a second activity related factor according to data obtained through the second acquisition as well as the first activity related factor; removing information affected by the second activity related factor and information affected by geometric distribution information of an acquired object from the data obtained through the second acquisition so as to obtain inherent crystal detection efficiency of a detector. Further, the inherent crystal detection efficiency of the detector is used for correction. The acquired data is subjected to adaptive correction in combination with geometrical structure factors and activity related factors on the basis of the obtained inherent crystal detection efficiency of the detector, so that normalization correction of the system is completed conveniently and accurately.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a positron emission tomography system, in particular to the technical field of correction of a positron emission tomography system. Background technique [0002] Positron Emission Tomography (PET) has become an important molecular imaging tool in preclinical research and clinical diagnosis, and its imaging performance is closely related to the data preprocessing method before image reconstruction. Data preprocessing includes normalization correction, random correction, scatter correction, attenuation correction, etc. Among them, normalization correction is the first step of preprocessing, and its accuracy directly determines the accuracy of subsequent scattering correction and random correction, thereby affecting the performance of the final reconstructed image, such as uniformity, noise characteristics, and artifact characteristics. [0003] Affected by the structure design of the PET system, the coupling mode of the front-en...
