    摘要: In a combined scanner, a main magnet (20) and magnetic field gradient coils (28) housed in or on a scanner housing (12, 18) acquires spatially encoded magnetic resonances in an imaging region (14). Solid state radiation detectors (50, 50′, 50″) disposed in or on the scanner housing are arranged to detect gamma rays emitted from the imaging region. Time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) processing (52, 54, 58, 60, 62) determines localized lines of response based on (i) locations of substantially simultaneous gamma ray detections output by the radiation detectors and (ii) a time interval between said substantially simultaneous gamma ray detections. TOF-PET reconstruction processing (64) reconstructs the localized lines of response to produce a TOF-PET image. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) reconstruction processing (44) reconstructs the acquired magnetic resonances to produce an MRI image.

    摘要: Method of generating an image of an object by means of an imaging system which has a radiation source that rotates relative to the object about an axis of rotation within a defined rotation angle range, said radiation source projecting radiation onto a radiation detector in order to record projection data, wherein at predefinable relative rotation angle positions of the radiation source a signal which is used to trigger recording of the projection data is generated, and also apparatus for carrying out this method.
