Fabrication Of Phantom For Quality Assurance Assessment In Cardiac Spect Imaging
Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) is commonly used in nuclear imaging to detect myocardial infarction (MI) within a myocardial wall (MW). SPECT can identify areas of infarction in MW. In this work, a MI phantom was fabricated and designed to simulate the MW of the left ventricle (MW...
