Abstract
A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions readable and executable by an imaging workstation () including at least one electronic processor () to perform an image reconstruction method (). The method includes: receiving emission imaging data () from an image acquisition device () wherein the emission imaging data has been filtered using an acquisition energy passband (); generating filtered imaging data by filtering the emission imaging data with a second energy passband () that is narrower than an acquisition energy passband; reconstructing the filtered imaging data to generate an intermediate image; estimating one or more scatter correction factors (SCFs) from the intermediate image; and reconstructing the emission imaging data corrected with the estimated SCFs to generate a reconstructed image.
