| pubmed:abstractText |
In positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) examinations, the standardized uptake value (SUV) is a commonly used index to evaluate the activity of cancer. The precision of SUV is directly affected by the local statistical noise in PET images because SUV is calculated based on the counts on PET image data. The purpose of this study was to estimate the local statistical noise in the PET image caused by attenuation of annihilation photons inside the body.
