摘要:
A method of conducting a multi-pass dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) scans using continuous bed motion (CBM) mode is disclosed where the method involves acquiring PET sinogram data using CBM mode as the patient bed is moving in a first direction; acquiring PET sonogram data using CBM mode as the patient bed is moving in a second direction that is opposite from the first direction; and reconstructing 3-D PET image from the acquired PET sonogram data.

A method of processing and reconstructing dynamic positron emission tomography (PET) sinogram data comprises: acquiring PET sinogram data using continuous bed motion having a varying velocity; recording a plurality of position-time coordinate pairs while acquiring the PET sinogram data; determining respective acquisition times of each of a plurality of slices of the image, based on the plurality of position-time coordinates; and reconstructing respective parametric images for each respective slice in the plurality of slices.
摘要:
A method for parametric image reconstruction and motion correction using whole-body motion fields includes receiving a nuclear imaging data set including a set of dynamic frames and generating at least one of a whole-body forward motion field and/or a whole-body inverse motion field for at least one frame in the set of frames. An iterative loop is applied to update at least one parameter used in a direct parametric reconstruction and at least one parametric image is generated based on the at least one parameter updated by the iterative loop. The iterative loop includes calculating a frame emission image for the at least one frame, generating a motion-corrected frame emission image based on the at least one whole-body forward motion field or a whole-body inverse motion field, and updating at least one parameter by applying a fit to the motion-corrected frame emission image.

An image reconstruction system generates de-noised, attenuation corrected, and scatter corrected images using AI processing. The system receives a low-dose PET image and applies a machine learning algorithm via a convolutional neural network to the low-dose PET image to generate an output image. The output image includes correction for scatter and attenuation associated with the image being low-dose. The system provides the output image to a computing device comprising a user interface.

An image reconstruction system generates a motion estimation using images that have been reconstructed using AI processing. The system receives listmode data collected by an imaging system and produces two or more histo-images based on the listmode data. The system provides the two or more histo-images to an AI system and receives two or more AI reconstructed images back from the AI system based on the two or more histo-images. The system generates a motion estimation based on the two or more AI reconstructed images.
