16-bin

English Medical Medical: Cardiology MI molecular imaging
Facilities that acquire 16-bin gated studies should assess the LV Volume Curve because it provides detailed systolic and diastolic functional information.


thanks for a short suggestion on this, I'm not sure what it presents

8 or 16 bins

I am not sure what this means, but it does seem to indicate something like a physical "bin" or storage place, or analagous to a physical bin.

"ECG-gating problems

ECG-gating problems may be suspected by reviewing the cine
display of the planar projection images. Sometimes a “flashing” effect occurs, caused by brighter and darker projection images. If the heart 100 Nuclear Cardiology, The Basics
rate during SPECT image acquisition was irregular, not all 8 or 16
bins of an ECG-gated SPECT study have accumulated the same number of counts per stop, resulting in darker and lighter images. However, one should be aware that ECG-gating irregularities are often subtle and may not be spotted directly from planar projection images."
