SPECT Imaging in the Diagnosis of Pulmonary Embolism: Automated Detection of Match and Mismatch Defects by Means of Image-Processing Techniques

SPECT of ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) lung scans not only improves the diagnostic accuracy of the method but also facilitates the application of advanced image-processing techniques. On the basis of such techniques, our study aimed at developing a procedure that automatically analyzes V/Q lung scans...
