ABSTRACT:
An algorithm for creating a normalization data array to use in generating a three-dimensional image is described. In one embodiment, the algorithm includes performing the steps of acquiring geometric factors from a two-dimensional normalization scan, determining the three-dimensional crystal sensitivities from a three-dimensional phantom acquisition scan, and using such geometric factors and crystal sensitivities, creating a three-dimensional normalization data array.
