    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Nuclear Medicine
    • Computational Physics

    Background:

    • Accurate scatter correction is crucial for 3-D Positron Emission Tomography (PET) reconstruction.
    • Single scatter simulation (SSS) is a common method but struggles with accuracy in low photon count scenarios due to tail fitting difficulties.
    • Existing methods often fail to incorporate multiple scattering contributions, limiting overall accuracy.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a more accurate and robust scatter correction method for 3-D PET reconstruction.
    • To overcome the limitations of single scatter simulation (SSS), particularly in low photon count measurements.
    • To improve scatter estimation by including multiple scattering effects.

    Main Methods:

    • Proposed a multiple scatter simulation (MSS) based on simplified Monte Carlo (MC) simulation.
    • Incorporated photon migration and interactions (photoelectric absorption, Compton scattering).
    • Calculated scaling factor by comparing simulated prompt data with measured data across the entire volume.
    • Accelerated computation using a virtual detector array and a hybrid CPU-GPU implementation (OpenMP, CUDA).

    Main Results:

    • The MSS provides a more robust estimation of the scaling factor compared to SSS.
    • Achieved a 128.3x speedup over single CPU using a hybrid CPU-GPU approach.
    • Demonstrated a total computational time of 9.4 seconds for the High-Resolution Research Tomograph (HRRT) system.
    • Validated the MSS performance through experimental results on an HRRT system.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed multiple scatter simulation (MSS) significantly enhances scatter correction accuracy in 3-D PET.
    • MSS offers a robust and computationally efficient alternative to traditional single scatter simulation (SSS).
    • The hybrid CPU-GPU implementation makes MSS practical for clinical and research applications.
