Representative image and line profiles of the cylinder phantom for uniformity. (a) Transaxial SPECT image. The activity concentration was 20.5 MBq/mL. Slice thickness of 5.0 mm and Gaussian postfilter full width at half maximum (FWHM) equal to maximum resolution of 2.5 mm were applied. (b) Line profiles of the vertical and horizontal lines on the left SPECT image. Blue and red curves are corresponding to the blue vertical and red horizontal lines.
