Imagine the detector ring of a PET scanner is mapped to a unit circle centered at the origin - for instance, the right side of the detector ring is at radius 1 and angle 0 = 0, the top of the ring is at 0 = 90°, left at 0= 180°, etc. We detect 3 coincidences: 01 = 20° and 255⁰, 0 = 100 and 300°. What is the most likely location (x, y) of the tracer?

Answer rating: 100% (QA)

To find the most likely location of the tracer we can use the information from the detected coincide... View the full answer
