DATA-DRIVEN OPTIMIZATION OF EVENT ACCEPTANCE/REJECTION LOGIC

In Positron Emission Tomography, a time window (260) and an energy window (225) are dynamically adjusted, based on an attenuation map, count rate, clinical application, discrimination tailoring, and/or offline discrimination tailoring. Detected radiation events are filtered using the dynamically adj...

Zusammenfassung:In Positron Emission Tomography, a time window (260) and an energy window (225) are dynamically adjusted, based on an attenuation map, count rate, clinical application, discrimination tailoring, and/or offline discrimination tailoring. Detected radiation events are filtered using the dynamically adjusted energy and time windows into scattered events, random events, and true events. The true events are input to image reconstruction, correction, and error analysis.
