PET/CT scans with 18F-FDG can be carried out for the detection of neurodegenerative diseases with hypometabolisms characteristic of the pathologies sought. The diagnosis is given by the clinician after a visual analysis of the data. To complete the diagnosis, a semi-quantitative analysis of the images is recommended (European recommendations) in addition to the visual analysis.~PET technology is improving from year to year thanks to the arrival of a new PET technology called digital. In addition, correction methods have been developed to improve PET images and thus improve the detection of different pathologies in PET.~The PSF (Point Spread Function) tool enables partial volume effects to be corrected. The PSF consists of correcting the impulse response of the system, and allows a visual improvement of the images. Currently not recommended in brain PET/CT reconstructions, it remains to be evaluated for the quantitative analysis of acquisitions.
