  • Notes supplémentaires dans les données
    Recommendations for users and patients: To correct the variation in mu values, Siemens recommends that you perform the cross-calibration procedure of the scanner. In addition to cross-calibration of the PET scanner relative to the dose calibrator, this procedure will also take into account the different mu values ​​of a solid third-party Germanium-68 quality phantom or liquid to ensure the most accurate quantification in corrected attenuation PET images .
  • Cause
    Siemens healthcare informs that using a different phantom from siemens solid germanium-68 phantom can affect the calibration factor values ​​generated during the pet quality control procedure. depending on the type of uniform phantom used to perform the pet quality control, the pet calibration factor may be biased due to the fact that the system uses a specific mu value of 0.1 cm -1, which is based on the germanium-68 phantom from siemens. the system will use this default mu value regardless of the actual mu value of the phantom used for the pet quality control; this may cause a variation in the quantification of pet images with corrected attenuation.
