Abstract :
We have found an effective way to reconstruct dynamic SPECT images directly from the projections. We conducted experiments on both synthetic and real data and show that our method is stable and robust. The linearity of the formulation allows us to obtain the solution in a computational efficient way, with very few assumptions on the time behaviour
