AB Monte Carlo simulation of PET studies is a reference tool for the evaluationand standardization of PET protocols. However, current Monte Carlo software codes require a high degree ofknowledge in physics, mathematics and programming languages, in addition to a high cost of time andcomputational resources. These drawbacks make their use difficult for a large part of the scientific community. Inorder to overcome these limitations, a free and an efficient web-based platform was designed, implemented andvalidated for the simulation of realistic brain PET studies, and specifically employed for the generation of a wellvalidatedlarge database of brain FDG-PET studies of patients with refractory epilepsy.
