However, current Monte Carlo software codes require a high degree of knowledge in physics, mathematics and programming languages, in addition to a high cost of time and computational resources. These drawbacks make their use difficult for a large part of the scientific community. In order to overcome these limitations, a free and an efficient web-based platform was designed, implemented and validated for the simulation of realistic brain PET studies, and specifically employed for the generation of a wellvalidated large database of brain FDG-PET studies of patients with refractory epilepsy.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 Internacionalhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/EpilepsyMonte CarlosimulationPETquantificationstandardizationMaterias::Investigación::22 Física::2207 Física atómica y nuclear::220799 Otras (tomografía por emisión de positrones)Materias::Investigación::32 Ciencias médicas::3201 Ciencias clínicas::320111 RadiologíaMaterias::Investigación::22 Física::2207 Física atómica y nuclear::220716 Resonancia magnética nuclearDevelopment of a simulation platform for the evaluation of PET neuroimaging protocols in epilepsydoctoral thesisopen access
