Proposed Preclinical Standard Protocols for Daily Routine Use Irrespective of Scanner/Site
| Parameter | Protocol |
| PET reconstruction | Iterative algorithms OSEM or MLEM total updates (iterations*subsets or iterations) to be in the range of 24 to 36. FBP is also recommended for use in conjunction with iterative methods. |
| CT image acquisition parameters for FBP reconstruction methods | Tube voltage at 50 kVp Number of projections at 360 Exposer of 300 ms. |
