High-speed scanning of planar images showing 123I-MIBG uptake using a whole-body CZT camera: a phantom and clinical study

Abstract Background The heart-to-mediastinum ratio (HMR) obtained in myocardial sympathetic innervation imaging using 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is used for heart failure or Lewy body diseases (LBD). Discovery NM/CT 670 CZT, a novel whole-body scanner, enables direct HMR measurements in pla...
