Comparison of different Monte-Carlo based approaches to calculating the system matrix for small animal PET

This study focuses on Monte-Carlo (MC) based techniques to calculate the system matrix (SM) for iterative image reconstruction of small animal PET data. Our goal is to determine in advance if some simplifications can be done to accelerate the MC simulation without jeopardizing the accuracy of the sy...
