The PSF matrix is derived from the single photon incidence response function. A statistical iterative reconstruction（IR） method based on the system matrix containing the PSF is developed. More specifically, the gamma photon incidence upon a crystal array is simulated by Monte Carlo（MC） simulation, and then the single photon incidence response functions are calculated. Subsequently, the single photon incidence response functions are used to compute the coincidence blurring factor according to the physical process of PET coincidence detection. Through weighting the ordinary system matrix response by the coincidence blurring factors, the IR system matrix containing the PSF is finally established. By using this system matrix, the image is reconstructed by an ordered subset expectation maximization（OSEM） algorithm. The experimental results show that the proposed system matrix can substantially improve the image radial resolution, contrast,and noise property. Furthermore, the simulated single gamma-ray incidence response function depends only on the crystal configuration, so the method could be extended to any PET scanner with the same detector crystal configuration.展开更多

At the beginning of the paper, an overview of PSF estimation methods will be introduced and the reason why knife-edge input PSF estimation method is chosen will be explained. Then in the next section, the knife-edge input PSF estimation method will be detailed. After that, a simulation experiment is performed in order to verify the implemented PSF estimation method. Based on the simulation experiment, in next section we propose a procedure that makes automatic PSF estimation possible. A real document image is firstly taken as an example to illustrate the procedure and then be restored with the estimated PSF and Lucy-Richardson deconvolution method, and its OCR accuracy before and after deconvolution will be compared.
