Respiratory and cardiac motion correction with 4D PET imaging: shooting at moving targets

Author: Giovanni Lucignani

Published in: European Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging | Issue 2/2009

Excerpt

Patient motion, almost inevitable during the acquisition of medical images and radiation therapy, naturally generates artifacts and uncertainties as to the nature, delineation, and location of lesions and, hence, as to the most appropriate course of treatment. …
