Quantifying the effects of iodine contrast media on standardised uptake values of FDG PET/CT images : an anthropomorphic phantom study.

This study aimed to quantify the amount of change in Standardised Uptake Values (SUVs) of PET/CT images by simulating the set-up as closely as possible to the actual patient scanning. The experiments were conducted using an anthropomorphic phantom, which contained an amount of radioactivity in the f...
