Abstract

See full text

The present application relates generally to positron emission tomography (PET). It finds particular application in conjunction with energy calibration of a digital PET (DPET) detector and will be described with particular reference thereto. In one aspect, a difference spectrum is produced by finding a difference between a background radiation spectrum with no radioactive source loaded and a calibration source radiation spectrum with a radioactive source loaded. The difference spectrum may then be used to identify an energy peak.
