    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for an armboard adjustment assembly for a patient support table. In one embodiment, an armboard adjustment assembly is configured to retain a rotational position of an armboard of a patient support table via a plurality of one-way clutches, and in another embodiment the armboard adjustment assembly is configured to retain the rotational position of the armboard via a pair of friction pads. In this way, the armboard may be moved into a continuous plurality of positions between a fully lowered position and a fully raised position.

    Abstract: A PET-MRI system for imaging an object is provided. The PET-MRI system includes a magnetic resonance imaging sub-system, a positron emission tomography sub-system, an optical sensor, and a data processing controller. The magnetic resonance imaging sub-system includes a surface coil that acquires magnetic resonance signals from the object. The positron emission tomography sub-system acquires PET emissions from the object. The optical sensor detects at least one of a spatial location and a shape of the surface coil. The data processing controller communicates with the magnetic resonance imaging sub-system, the positron emission tomography sub-system, and the optical sensor, and utilizes at least one of the detected spatial location and the detected shape of the surface coil to correct the acquired PET emissions for attenuation.
