Assessing the impact of radiation-induced changes in soft tissue density/thickness on the study of radiation-induced perfusion changes in the lung and heart

Purpose: Abnormalities in single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) perfusion within the lung and heart are often detected following radiation for tumors in/around the thorax (e.g., lung cancer or left-sided breast cancer). The presence of SPECT perfusion defects is determined by comparing...
