摘要:
Methods and systems for imaging by using a filter for Time-Of-Flight Positron Emission Tomography (TOF PET) are described. The described methods of imaging a patient by using a positron emission tomography (PET) system includes acquiring a plurality of frames of sinogram data, filtering the acquired sinogram data and back-projecting the filtered sinogram data to form an output image of the patient. The acquired sinogram data defines a line of response (LOR) and a time-of-flight (TOF) measurement that localizes positron annihilation within the patient. The filtering of the acquired sinogram data is performed using the TOF measurement.
