  • Abstract
    A detailed GATE model of the Siemens Inveon trimodal platform has been developed. Fully incorporating the PET, SPECT and CT data acquisition subsystems, this model enables feasibility studies of new imaging applications as well as the creation of a baseline against which empirical data can be compared. This paper provides initial validation of the model.
