Abstract: An assessment of imaging performance of the Mediso nanoScan small animal PET/CT scanner using 18F and 68Ga radioisotopes was performed. NEMA NU 4-2008 standard phantoms and protocols were used. Evaluation of spatial resolution was performed using glass capillary tubes and a specially designed spherical point source. Spatial resolution was estimated and compared for both radioisotopes using 2D-FBP, 2D-OSEM and Tera-Tomo 3D-OSEM image reconstruction algorithms.
