Image Quality and Quantitative PET Parameters of Low-Dose [<sup>18</sup>F]FDG PET in a Long Axial Field-of-View PET/CT Scanner

PET/CT scanners with a long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) provide increased sensitivity, enabling the adjustment of imaging parameters by reducing the injected activity or shortening the acquisition time. This study aimed to evaluate the limitations of reduced [<sup>18</sup>F]FDG activity...
