Title
Theoretical study of lesion detectability of MAP reconstruction using computer observers.
Abstract
The low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in emission data has stimulated the development of statistical image reconstruction methods based on the maximum a posteriori (MAP) principle. Experimental examples have shown that statistical methods improve image quality compared to the conventional filtered backprojection (FBP) method. However, these results depend on isolated data sets. Here, the authors stu...
