were set as a reference to CT images of the bone window to measure SUVs and SDs from the first thoracic to the fifth lumbar vertebrae in clinical xB images using the Syngo Via software (Siemens Healthcare, Erlangen, Germany).

The 13-mm sphere and intervertebral space were observable in xB but were undetectable in F3D. The noise and background of the spinous process were improved by increasing the acquisition time in F3D images. Radioactiv- ity concentrations of the cortical and spongious bones in the first vertebra were almost similar, whereas those of the cortical bone with high HU were decidedly higher than those of the spongious bone in xB images.

(green) and non-detected (red) In general, the PET/CT showed slightly increased CRC and CNR for the OSEM+PSF(+TOF) reconstructions compared to PET/MRI. CRC and CNR in- creased when PSF was incorporated in the reconstruction, and a further increase was found when both PSF and TOF were included. Improvements by PSF and TOF have also been demonstrated previously [4, 13, 15–17, 19, 20], and this indi- cates that these algorithms should be used to increase the possibility of detecting small lesions. PSF is a geometry correction that provides higher and more uniform spatial resolution over the transaxial FOV and will therefore have the most impact at the outer edges of the FOV [32]. The inclusion of TOF increases the signal-to- Fig. 7 Histograms of contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) for detected (green) and non-detected (red) spheres for a PET/MRI and b PET/CT for all the reconstructions with similar number of true counts for the two systems.
