V/Q SPECT for the Assessment of Regional Lung Function: Generation of Normal Mean and Standard Deviation 3-D Maps

V/Q SPECT for the Assessment of Regional Lung Function: Generation of Normal Mean and Standard Deviation 3-D Maps

Background: V/Q SPECT/CT is attractive for regional lung function assessment, but accurate delineation and quantification of functional lung volumes remains a challenge. Physiological intra and inter patient non-uniformity of V/Q SPECT images make conventional delineation methods of functional lung...
