The purpose was to evaluate the spatial resolution in 111In-octreotide single-photom emission computed tomography (SPECT)/computed tomography (CT) imaging following reconstructions with three different ordered subset expectation maximizations (OSEM) reconstruction algorithms; attenuation corrected (AC) OSEM, AC OSEM with resolution recovery (ACRR OSEM) and Monte Carlo-based OSEM reconstruction (MC OSEM). SPECT/CT imaging of a triple line phantom containing 111In in air and water was performed. The spatial resolution, represented by the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of a line profile, was determined for each line, for X and Y direction and for all reconstructions. The mean FWHM was 12.2 mm (±standard deviation [SD] 3.7 mm) for AC OSEM, 9.3 mm (±SD 2.5 mm) for ACRR OSEM and 8.2 mm (±SD 2.0 mm) for MC OSEM. MC-based SPECT/CT reconstruction clearly improves the spatial resolution in 111In-octreotide imaging and since MC simulations can be performed for all photon energies MC OSEM has the potential to improve SPECT/CT imaging overall.
