Abstract

The presented paper describes an analytical iterative approach to reconstruction problem for positron emission tomography (PET). The reconstruction problem is formulated taking into consideration the statistical properties of signals obtained by PET scanner and the analytical methodology of image processing. Computer simulations have been performed which prove that the reconstruction algorithm described here, does indeed significantly outperform conventional analytical methods on the quality of the images obtained.
