THE type of computer memory that allows for temporary storage for programs and data is called
|
ROM
RAM RAD REM |
RAM

A HIGH pass image filter removes
|
- relatively lower frequencies
- relatively higher frequencies - frequencies that are both low and high |
relatively lower frequencies
A high pass filter allows higher frequencies to pass through and reduces lower frequencies data from the resulting image. This can produce a nosier image with better edge definition. |

Which is most useful for gated first pass cardiac studies?
|
-list modes = stores data in time sequences
- frame mode = requires less memory and has a higher acquistion rate than list mode....... but the data may not be divided into different images at a later time. |
list mode

Filtering SPECT may take place
|
before reconstruction
during reconstruction after reconstruction all of the above |
all of the above
Filters may be applied before, during or after processing reconstruction. The filter that is most often used during reconstruction with filtered back projection is the modified ramp filter, also called the Butterworth filter. |
