Abstract

This work used Monte Carlo (MC) simulations in order to investigate the feasibility of the application of a super-resolution method, namely Super Spatial Resolution (SSR), to a preclinical SPECT system. The SSR method is used to obtain a resolution enhancement by combining several images containing slightly different perspectives of the same scene.
