Clinical comparison of high-resolution with high-sensitivity collimators in low-count cardiac gated blood pool studies.
We compared high-sensitivity (HS) and high-resolution (HR) collimators for 2.5-minute low-count acquisitions in 13 patients undergoing cardiac gated blood pool studies. High-count acquisitions served ... | {
