A Bayesian spatial temporal mixtures approach to kinetic parametric images in dynamic Positron Emission Tomography [PDF]
We present a fully Bayesian statistical approach to the problem of compartmental modelling in the context of Positron Emission Tomography. We cluster homogeneous region of interest and perform kinetic parameter estimation simultaneously. A mixture modelling approach is adopted, incorporating both spatial and temporal information based on reconstructed ...

Machine learning methods for accurate delineation of tumors in PET images [PDF]
In oncology, Positron Emission Tomography imaging is widely used in diagnostics of cancer metastases, in monitoring of progress in course of the cancer treatment, and in planning radiotherapeutic interventions. Accurate and reproducible delineation of the tumor in the Positron Emission Tomography scans remains a difficult task, despite being crucial ...

Study of Micro Pixel Photon Counter for the Application to Positron Emission Tomography [PDF]
The main challenges posed by the design of future Positron Emission Tomography machines are the improvement of the spatial and timing resolution and the combined operation with magnetic resonance. The Micro Pixel Photon Counter by Hamamatsu is a good candidate for this application.
