Abstract

A Positron Emission Tomography (PET) apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine a virtual detector region on the basis of a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) detector capable of detecting, in a real number coordinate system, a light emission position of an event occurring due to pair annihilation gamma rays becoming incident, a Line Of Response (LOR) defined based on the event detected by the PET detector, and the light emission position and is configured to perform a reconstruction process on the basis of the virtual detector region.
