Fig. 2From: Impact of acquisition time and penalizing factor in a block-sequential regularized expectation maximization reconstruction algorithm on a Si-photomultiplier-based PET-CT system for 18F-FDGSUVmax (a) and SUVpeak (b) for all examined combinations of AT (MBq/kg × min/bed) and β values. All values are normalized to an AT of 16 with a β of 300 (reference). The same scale on the y-axis is used in order to highlight the smaller variation of SUVpeak compared with SUVmax. The boxplots show the median and the second and third quartile groups (box) whereas the whiskers show the first and the fourth quartile groups. Circles are outliers, and stars indicate extreme outliersBack to article page
