FIGURE 3. DIBH enabled correction for respiratory motion artifacts in diaphragm on CT images (A and B). Because of breathing motion, tissue density in region where the diaphragm moves in and out drops. This yielded a reduced activity concentration in corresponding areas on PET images when CT attenuation correction is performed. This artifact was minimized on DIBH CT attenuation-corrected DIBH PET images.
