Abstract

Systems and methods include acquisition of data representing true coincidences and scatter coincidences detected by the plurality of detectors, allocation of the data into respective ones of a plurality of energy ranges, determination of a baseline response associated with each of a subset of the plurality of energy ranges, generation of data representing expected true coincidences associated with each of the subset of the plurality of energy ranges based on the data allocated to each of the subset of the plurality of energy ranges and the baseline response associated with each of the subset of the plurality of energy ranges, determination of a raw scatter estimate based on the data representing expected true coincidences associated with each of the subset of the plurality of energy ranges and the data allocated to each of the subset of the plurality of energy ranges, and reconstruction of an image based on the raw scatter estimate and the data representing true coincidences and scatter coincidences.
