Definitions

  • some embodiments determine image acquisition parameters that are specific to the anatomy and to the physiology of the patient being imaged.
  • the acquisition parameter may include scanning speeds for various scanning ranges.
  • An image is then acquired using the determined acquisition parameters. For a given acquisition time, embodiments may therefore provide higher-quality images with more clinical relevance than conventional nuclear imaging systems.
  • Control system 420 may comprise any general-purpose or dedicated computing system. Accordingly, control system 420 includes one or more processing units 422 configured to execute processor-executable program code to cause system 420 to operate as described herein, and storage device 430 for storing the program code.
  • Storage device 430 may comprise one or more fixed disks, solid-state random access memory, and/or removable media (e.g., a thumb drive) mounted in a corresponding interface (e.g., a USB port).
  • Segmentation program 432 may be executed to segment uptake volumes of emission data 434 as described above.
  • classification program 433 may be executed to classify the segmented uptake volumes. As described above, the classification may be based on the segmented uptake volumes, emission data 434 , and corresponding CT data 435 .
