| Abstract | In whole body PET studies, acquisitions are typically overlapped axially to improve the statistics of the slices at the edge of the field of view. This is particularly important in 3D acquisitions where the slice sensitivity profile varies more than in 2D acquisitions. 3D PET data in the overlapped region may be combined after reconstruction, by a weighted average of the corresponding images from the two frames, or the data may be combined after Fourier Rebinning is used to convert it to a stack of 2D transaxial sinograms. Direct combination of the 3D data on a frame by frame basis is difficult because many lines of response through the overlapped region also pass through the non-overlapped regions of image space. This paper describes a memory efficient method for combining overlapped 3D projection plane data in the loop of a fully 3D OSEM algorithm. In this method, a subset of 3D projection plane data is read from each frame and used to update the appropriate region of the ratio and correction images required in the iterative algorithm. The full 3D ratio and correction image volumes are then built for all frames for each subset. With each subset, the ratio and correction image volumes are used to create a new image estimate. This algorithm is compared to post reconstruction overlap correction using 3D OSEM on separate frames. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
