Abstract
We read with great interest the paper by Limet al(2018Phys. Med. Biol.63035042) on bias reduction in Y-90 PET imaging. In particular, they proposed a new formulation of the tomographic reconstruction problem that enforces non-negativity in projection space as opposed to image space. We comment on the algorithm they derived from this formulation and bring some clarifications on the constraint that this algorithm respects.
期刊介绍:
The development and application of theoretical, computational and experimental physics to medicine, physiology and biology. Topics covered are: therapy physics (including ionizing and non-ionizing radiation); biomedical imaging (e.g. x-ray, magnetic resonance, ultrasound, optical and nuclear imaging); image-guided interventions; image reconstruction and analysis (including kinetic modelling); artificial intelligence in biomedical physics and analysis; nanoparticles in imaging and therapy; radiobiology; radiation protection and patient dose monitoring; radiation dosimetry
