Respiratory motion correction in positron emission tomography
- Abstract:
-
In this thesis, we develop a motion correction method to overcome the degradation of image quality introduced by respiratory motion in positron emission tomography (PET), so that diagnostic performance for lung cancer can be improved. Lung cancer is currently the most common cause of cancer death both in the UK and in the world. PET/CT, which is a combination of PET and CT, providing clinicians with both functional and anatomical information, is routinely used as a non-invasive imaging techni...
