… We propose a center of mass (CoM) lung tumor tracking algorithm using gated-PET images
… Based on the general characteristics of lung tumor motion, we moved the 3D motion stage …

… However, the result of such multi-frame acquisitions leads to gated PET images suffering …
motion at the level of the lung and the diaphragm. Lesions at different locations throughout the …

… 3D PET images corresponded to the ungated motion average while 4D gated PET images
resolved different respiratory motion … PET reconstruction methods for motion handling, lung …

… This agrees with the observation reported by [3] that lesions in the upper lung move by
around \(2\,\mathrm {mm}\): below PET image resolution. However, L5 and L8 have lost contrast …

… The major application of this study is thoracic PET imaging for lung cancer detection and
staging. The results show a significant improvement of the spatial resolution and lesion contrast…

… Correction for breathing motion In order to reduce the blurring effect in thoracic PET images
due to respiratory motion, we applied a deconvolution-based algorithm. This is an inverse …

… The purpose of this study is to evaluate the performance of 4D PET imaging, and examine
the choice of attenuation correction method using a phantom designed to represent the lung–…

… Physiologic motion, particularly breathing, affects PET images because of the long … volumes
measured by PET and CT for tracer-avid lesions in moving lung tissue in PET imaging when …

… Their measurement was for evaluating the impact of respiratory motion on the attenuation
correction of cardiac PET data and not for accurately correcting the deformation of the …

… Clinical experience demonstrated improved lung compliance, … motion stabilization at full
inspiration for medical imaging and … in lung parenchyma on PFV-induced apnea image. More …
