Fig. 1From: Asphericity of tumor FDG uptake in non-small cell lung cancer: reproducibility and implications for harmonization in multicenter studiesSphere activity profiles. a Radial activity profiles of the 37-mm sphere for the reference algorithm with different in-plane filter widths to achieve different levels of reconstructed spatial resolution (FWHM). Acquisition time was 180Â s. Substantial noise propagation can be observed at FWHM of approx. 5Â mm. b Corresponding profiles for 6.4-mm in-plane filter width at shorter acquisition times. Noise especially increases between 90 and 60Â s acquisition time, while reconstructed spatial resolution remains similarBack to article page
