Development of a scatter correction technique for planar 99mTc-MAA imaging to improve accuracy in lung shunt fraction estimation

• Geometric mean method shown to greatly overestimate LSF estimation. • Geometric mean method with scatter correction, improves accuracy of LSF estimation. • Supported by Monte Carlo, phantom and preliminary patient studies. • Revised methodology facilitates improved accuracy in the dosimetry estima...
