The normalised mean activities within the dilated shells surrounding the NEMA bottle obtained at three full iterations with a no post-filter and b 4-mm Gaussian post-filter. This demonstrates how spill-in activity from the hot bottle to the surrounding shells reduces as we move farther away from the bottle. The voxel activities were normalised with the actual activity in the spheres
