Forschungsartikel (Zeitschrift) | Peer reviewedZusammenfassung
Respiratory and cardiac motion are a known source of image degradation and quantification impairment in positron emission tomography (PET). In this study we use near-realistic PET/MRI data acquired using a custom-built human torso phantom capable of simulating respiratory and cardiac motion. We demonstrate that a significant reduction in motion-induced artifacts in PET data is possible using MR-derived motion estimates.
