Motion compensation for PET in TOF-PET/CT and TOF-PET/MR brain imaging KU Leuven
In PET/CT or PET/MR brain imaging, images of the metabolism and anatomy of the patient are acquired. If the patient moves during the PET acquisition, then motion blurring is caused, the image quality is deteriorated, and an accurate clinical diagnosis might become impossible. Several research groups (including our own) have previously developed marker based methods to track the motion of the head, such that the motion can be compensated for ...
