    Area of Science:

    • Nuclear Medicine
    • Medical Imaging
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Rotating multi-segment slant-hole (RMSSH) SPECT offers higher detection efficiency for small, low-contrast breast lesions compared to parallel-hole SPECT.
    • RMSSH SPECT allows closer breast imaging, potentially improving lesion visualization.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To enhance RMSSH SPECT image reconstruction by incorporating non-uniform attenuation compensation.
    • To evaluate the impact of attenuation compensation on the quantitative accuracy and image quality of RMSSH SPECT.

    Main Methods:

    • Extended a rotation-shear transformation-based 3D iterative reconstruction algorithm.
    • Implemented non-uniform attenuation compensation within the RMSSH SPECT reconstruction process.

    Main Results:

    • Reconstructed RMSSH SPECT images with attenuation compensation demonstrated significantly improved quantitative accuracy.
    • The inclusion of attenuation compensation led to a notable reduction in image artifacts compared to reconstructions without it.

    Conclusions:

    • Attenuation compensation is crucial for improving the image quality of RMSSH SPECT.
    • The enhanced RMSSH SPECT technique with attenuation compensation offers superior quantitative accuracy for breast lesion detection.
