摘要:

本文研究了位置单光子入射响应(P-SPIR)理论,以简单、快速地生成更精确的含PSF的系统矩阵。在中国科学院高能物理研究所研制的Eplus-260灵长类动物PET上的应用表明,该方法能有效地提高PET的空间分辨率。同时,为了满足临床需要,GPU加速被投入使用。P-SPIR理论基于Geant4发射层析成像应用(GATE),通过晶体细分同时考虑入射角和入射位置,而不是仅考虑入射角。仿真结果符合实际响应分布,可在1s内快速完成。此外,还提出了两块体穿透和响应概率归一化的方法,使之更符合实际。在获得PSF的基础上,分析均匀化模型,计算出几分钟内的面元分布,生成系统矩阵。结果表明,P-SPIR方法能有效地抑制干涉深度效应,尤其是在视场边缘附近。该方法可以快速、高效地推广到其他PET和列表式组织结构,大大降低了计算成本,保证了PET重建系统矩阵的准确性。

英文摘要:

Positional single photon incidence response (P-SPIR) theory is researched in this paper to generate more accurate PSF-contained system matrix simply and quickly. The method has been proved highly effective to improve the spatial resolution by applying to the Eplus-260 primate PET designed by the Institute of High Energy Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences(IHEP). Simultaneously, to meet the clinical needs, GPU acceleration is put to use. Basically, P-SPIR theory takes both incidence angle and incidence position by crystal subdivision instead of only incidence angle into consideration based on Geant4 Application for Emission Tomography (GATE). The simulation conforms to the actual response distribution and can be completed rapidly within less than 1s. Furthermore,two-block penetration and normalization of the response probability are raised to fit the reality. With PSF obtained, the homogenization model is analyzed to calculate the spread distribution of bins within a few minutes for system matrix generation. As a reult, The images reconstructed indicate that the P-SPIR method can effectively inhibit the depth of interaction (DOI) effect especially in the field close to the edge of the field of view (FOV). What is more, the method can be promoted to any other PET and the list-mode organization structure high-speedily and efficiently, which substantially reduces the computing cost and ensures the accuracy of system matrix for PET reconstruction.
