A comparison of two attenuation correction methods in 111In-Pentetriotide abdominal SPECT

Tomographic image can be degraded, partially by patient based attenuation. The aim of this paper is to quantitatively verify the effects of attenuation correction methods Chang and CT in 111In studies through the analysis of profiles from abdominal SPECT, correspondent to a uniform radionuclide uptake organ, the left kidney.
