Positron Emission Tomography (PET) image reconstruction remains a pivotal area in PET technology, critically influencing clinical diagnostic outcomes. Addressing the need for enhanced image quality, this study introduces a novel algorithm for PET image reconstruction. This algorithm integrates a penalty mechanism, morphological filtering, and the Maximum Likelihood Expectation Maximization (MLEM) algorithm, aiming to improve reconstructed image quality significantly. The operational process of the algorithm within each iteration encompasses two primary phases. Initially, image reconstruction i...
