Abstract: Dynamic PET brain studies are common in research and are becoming common in clinical applications. Simulation of dynamic PET is an important step to validate techniques and methods. This study compares a GATE simulation running on a CPU versus running on a GPU. We simulated the 3T Siemens MR-Brain PET with dynamic brain activity. The results show close agreement in the number of coincidence events, including phantom scatter. The code will be made available to the GATE community and the simulation data is available to the interested researchers.
