Abstract
Positron emission tomography (PET) are widely accepted and used as an effective medical imaging method. We have studied on the dual radioisotopes C11 and Cu60 together by modifying the isotopes used in Standard cyclindirial PET through GATE imaging simulation. We scan the proper resolution intervals and the distances between the sources and present the differences in parameters such as full width at half maximum (FWHM), intensity and contrast. Applying statistical χ^2 method, we aim to show the significance limits of above parameteric differences in PET simulations. These results may help determine in which conditions the imaging devices can be used with dual isotope method in clinical applications.
