A practical method to evaluate personalized injected patient dose for cardiac perfusion SPECT imaging: the polar map as a numerical observer
TL;DR: The ROC results show that the personalized dose strategy does not adversely affect the detection of perfusion defects, and the strategy to better calculate individual and personalized injected doses using the body mass index is effective.
