Fast GPU-based Monte Carlo code for SPECT/CT reconstructions generates improved 177Lu images

Abstract Background Full Monte Carlo (MC)-based SPECT reconstructions have a strong potential for correcting for image degrading factors, but the reconstruction times are long. The objective of this study was to develop a highly parallel Monte Carlo code for fast, ordered subset expectation maximum...
