You can just google those values for each scanner.

For example:

MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be https://www.google.com/search?q=nema+fwhm+siemens+mMR

 

Second result links directly to the Siemens website:

MailScanner has detected a possible fraud attempt from "secure-web.cisco.com" claiming to be https://www.siemens-healthineers.com/magnetic-resonance-imaging/mr-pet-scanner/biograph-mmr

 

There, it is stated:

Transverse spatial resolution (NEMA 2012)

FWHM @ 1 cm : 4.6 mm

 

 

You can also determine the parameters yourself by following the NEMA standards.

Hi Douglas,

 

Here is the information given by the technician from the PET center:

 

There are a total of 3 machines used for PIB PET/CT or PET/MR scans

 

  1. PET/CT1 ( mCT)(contain "mCT" in the pet series)

Manufacturer: Siemens
ManufacturersModelName: Biograph128_mCT

recon method : TrueX + TOF (ultra HD-PET)

iteration: 5 subset:21 matrix: 400x400

zoom: 2.0  Gaussian filter FWHM: 2.0mm

 

  1. PET/CT2 (Vision)(contain "Vis" in the pet series)

Manufacturer: Siemens
ManufacturersModelName: Biograph128Edge_Vision 600

recon method:  TrueX + TOF (ultra HD-PET)

iteration: 8 subset: 5 matrix: 512x512

zoom: 2.0  Gaussian filter FWHM: 2.0mm

 

  1. PET/MR (mMR)

Manufacturer: Siemens
ManufacturersModelName: Biograph_mMR

recon method: HD-PET

iteration: 5 subset: 21 matrix: 344x344

zoom:2.0 Gaussian filter FWHM:2.0mm

 

Thanks,

Angel

That 2mm for the gaussian is just the post-processing filter and does not represent the full amount of partial volume effect. What kind of scanner is it?

Hi Douglas,

 

Thanks for your clarification. This is my first time to run PetSurfer. We did want to normalize by cerebellar grey matter, and I will add the "--rescale 8 47". I just copied "6" from the example command. I know "6" should be the FWHM of the point-spread function (PSF) of the scanner as measured in image space. I did ask the technician at the PET centre, and he replied that the reconstruction method was "OP-OSEM 8i21s" and the filter was "XYZ gaussian 2.00". Can I use "2" for psf in the command?

 

Thanks,

Angel

Yes, though that will normalize by the pons. If you want to normalize by something else, you will need to specify it with --rescale. Eg, if  you want to normalize by ceberbellar gray matter, add
--rescale 8 47
Where did you get "6" from for the psf?

Hi Douglas,

 

Thanks for your reply. We used different tracers for diagnosis of AD or other neurodegenerative diseases, including PIB, FDG, Flutemetamol and TAU. If an SUV analysis is used, is it done by mri_gtmpvc? Is there any subsequent analysis needed?

 

This is my mri_gtmpvc command:

mri_gtmpvc \

  --i $SUBJECTS_DIR/sub-QM001/pet/sub-QM001_ses-001_trc-C11PIB_rec-05MINS_run-001_pet.nii.gz \

  --reg $SUBJECTS_DIR/sub-QM001/pet/sub-QM001_ses-001_trc-C11PIB_rec-05MINS_run-001_pet.reg.lta \

  --psf 6 \

  --seg $SUBJECTS_DIR/sub-QM001/mri/gtmseg.mgz \

  --default-seg-merge  \

  --auto-mask 1 .01 \

  --mgx .01 \

  --o $SUBJECTS_DIR/sub-QM001/pet/gtmpvc.output

 

Is this command okay?

 

Thanks,

Angel

you cannot apply kinetic modeling to one frame. What is you ligand? For a one frame acquisition, you usually use an SUV analysis.

Hi experts,

 

As stated in the subject, can kinetic modeling be applied to PET data with only one frame? Or we just stop at ROI analysis without kinetic modeling?

 

Best,

Angel
