Absolute frequency distribution of preferred reconstruction algorithms for lung cancer assessment as rated by the readers, including the ratings for all study subjects (a): BSREM600 was chosen most frequently as the preferred reconstruction algorithm by the readers, followed by BSREM450, BSREM800, and BSREM350. When comparing the relative frequency distribution of preferred reconstruction algorithms (b) for high-18F-FDG-dosage regimen (> 2.0 MBq/kg body weight; n = 20 patients) and low-dosage regimen (≤ 2.0 MBq/kg body weight; n = 25 patients), a significant shift of the preferred image reconstruction algorithm from BSREM450 to BSREM600 was observed (p <  0.05)
