N2 - We developed a cost-effective dual modality PET/SPECT imaging device based on an animal PET scanner. To achieve a large axial field of view (FOV) in the SPECT imaging mode, a slit-slat collimator insert was used. The objective of this work was to assess a method that used the PET imaging capability of the scanner to calibrate the geometrical parameters of the slit-slat collimator, including the slit aperture centers (SACs), axis of rotation (AOR), and slat center positions (SCPs).
