BACKGROUND: Reliable dosimetry based on SPECT/CT imaging is essential to achieve personalized Ho-radioembolization treatment planning and evaluation. This study quantitatively evaluates multiple acquisition and reconstruction protocols for Ho-SPECT imaging based on data from five Dutch hospitals. We aim to recommend an imaging protocol which harmonizes Ho-SPECT images for reproducible and accurate dosimetry in a multi-scanner and multi-center setting. METHODS: Cylindrical and NEMA IEC phantoms, filled with Ho-chloride, were imaged using seven SPECT/CT scanners from two vendors (GE HealthCare and Siemens Healthineers). Data were acquired with a photopeak window centered at 81 keV. Two adjacent scatter windows, and one upper scatter window at 118 keV were used for triple-energy window (TEW) and dual-energy window (DEW) scatter correction, respectively. The TEW and DEW reconstructions used vendor-specific software. Additionally, a vendor-neutral software package with Monte Carlo (MC) scatter correction (Hermes Medical Solutions) was used to study the influence of scanner hardware on the image quality. System sensitivity was measured in projection data of the cylindrical phantom. The axial uniformity in the cylindrical phantom was used to characterize the impact of the scatter correction method. The image quality was evaluated by the coefficient of variation (COV; noise), the contrast recovery coefficients (CRCs) and contrast-to-noise ratios (CNRs). RESULTS: TEW scatter correction resulted in superior uniformity and higher CRCs compared to the DEW (CRC for the largest sphere over all scanners, mean ± SD (range): TEW 0.54 ± 0.07 (0.36-0.65), DEW 0.44 ± 0.04 (0.34-0.51)). DEW resulted in lower noise levels compared to TEW (16% lower on average). The DEW and TEW images resulted in comparable CNRs. The system sensitivities and the vendor-neutral image reconstructions demonstrated differences in hardware between the two vendors, most likely due to the characteristics of the vendor-specific medium energy collimator. CONCLUSION: This study demonstrates that TEW scatter correction increases the accuracy of Ho-SPECT images compared to DEW, and we henceforth recommend adopting this method in the clinical Ho-dosimetry workflow. Scanner hardware has a substantial impact on the characteristics of the acquired data, and identical reconstruction settings will therefore not automatically lead to harmonized image quality.
