Silicon-photomultiplier-based PET/CT reduces the minimum detectable activity of iodine-124

Abstract The radioiodine isotope pair 124I/131I is used in a theranostic approach for patient-specific treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer. Lesion detectability is notably higher for 124I PET (positron emission tomography) than for 131I gamma camera imaging but can be limited for small and lo...
