Abstract

The invention provides a positron emission tomography (PET) system. The PET system includes a plurality of annular detector units, a plurality of logical circuits and a calculating device, wherein the detector units are sequentially arranged in the axial direction and used for counting single events, the logical circuits are connected with one or more corresponding detector units and used for counting coincidence events, the coincidence events includes the coincidence events obtained by the single detector unit or the coincidence events obtained by two detector units meeting the pairing rule, and the calculating device includes several calculating nodes and is used for randomly receiving the number, obtained after counting, of the coincidence events and conducting image reconstruction.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention mainly relates to medical image diagnosis equipment, in particular to a positron emission tomography (Positron Emission Tomography, PET) system and an image reconstruction method thereof. Background technique [0002] PET is a relatively advanced clinical examination imaging technology in the field of nuclear medicine, and it has now played an important role in medical biological research and clinical diagnosis and treatment. [0003] PET is a diagnostic technique that reflects the function and metabolism of internal organs and tissues in the human body from the molecular level. PET will contain positron-radiating drugs (such as 18 F-FDG) is injected into the human body. Since the metabolism of FDG is very similar to that of glucose, it can accumulate in the cells that digest glucose, especially the fast-growing tumor tissue has different drug uptake. 18 The positrons released by the F decay will annihilate with the negative ele...
