    A new program offers real-time visual feedback for selecting optimal digital filters in single photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) imaging. This tool aids users in deconvolution and noise reduction for improved image quality.

    Area of Science:

    • Medical Imaging
    • Digital Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Digital filtering is crucial for single photon emission computed tomographic (SPECT) image quality.
    • Optimizing filters requires balancing noise reduction with resolution preservation.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop a user-friendly program for selecting optimal digital filters in SPECT imaging.
    • To provide real-time visual feedback for subjective filter optimization.

    Main Methods:

    • A program was developed utilizing Metz filters tailored to specific imaging conditions.
    • A guideline based on noise power spectrum analysis assists filter selection.
    • Interactive joystick control allows real-time parameter adjustment and visual feedback.

    Main Results:
