  • Abstract
    Positron emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear medicine technique that allows not only obtaining a three-dimensional image of internals, but also assessing their metabolism and functions, which helps to identify the disease at an early stage. Development of mathematical algorithms in PET is the crucial task because of wide range of applications for image reconstructions and projection data correction.
