Monte Carlo evaluation of scattering correction methods in <sup>131</sup>I studies using pinhole collimator

Scattering is quite important for image activity quantification. In order to study the scattering factors and the efficacy of 3 multiple window energy scatter correction methods during 131I thyroid studies with a pinhole collimator (5 mm hole) a Monte Carlo simulation (MC) was developed. The GAMOS M...
