Study of the Compton scattering effect of soft tissue in PET imaging by Monte Carlo method

Introduction:In PET imaging, one or both of two annihilation photons may change the direction before reaching the detector due to Compton scattering interaction in body. .Methods:This article, a Monte Carlo simulation study, examined the effect of soft tissue on this error.In this work, the PET Biog...
