Quiescent phase respiratory gating for PET/CT

C Liu, A Alessio, L Pierce, K Thielemans… - 2009 - Soc Nuclear Med
1473 Objectives Previous studies have shown that patients spend more time breathing near
end expiration where less motion occurs and tend to return to the same end expiration …

Respiratory gated PET based on time activity curve analysis

A Kesner, M Dahlbom, J Czernin, DH Silverman - 2007 - Soc Nuclear Med
1741 Objectives: Respiratory motion in PET degrades images and limits detectability and
characterization of small or low-contrast lesions. Although image quality can in principle be …

Reduction of respiratory motion artifacts in PET imaging of lung cancer by respiratory correlated dynamic PET: methodology and comparison with respiratory gated …

SA Nehmeh, YE Erdi, KE Rosenzweig… - Journal of Nuclear …, 2003 - Soc Nuclear Med
This study proposes a new method to reduce respiratory motion artifacts in PET images of
lung cancer. The method is referred to as respiratory-correlated dynamic PET (RCDPET) …

Respiratory motion gated PET with end-expiratory, amplitude based gating

K Frey, J Hamill, J Jones, R Koeppe - 2009 - Soc Nuclear Med
348 Objectives Established approaches to reducing influence of respiratory motion in PET
are predominantly time based, dividing the respiratory cycle into multiple bins based on an …

Accuracy of amplitude-based respiratory gating for PET/CT in irregular respirations

Y Tsutsui, D Kidera, T Taniguchi, G Akamatsu… - Annals of nuclear …, 2014 - Springer
Objective We evaluated the accuracy of amplitude gating PET (AG-PET) compared with
phase gating PET (PG-PET) in relation to respiratory motion patterns based on a phantom …

Quiescent period respiratory gating for PET/CT

C Liu, A Alessio, L Pierce, K Thielemans… - Medical …, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Purpose: To minimize respiratory motion artifacts, this work proposes quiescent period
gating (QPG) methods that extract PET data from the end‐expiration quiescent period and …

Whole-body respiratory gated PET/CT

P Kinahan, H Vesselle, L Macdonald, A Alessio… - 2006 - Soc Nuclear Med
537 Objectives: We assess the functionality of a respiratory gated PET/CT protocol that is
both clinically feasible and applicable to whole-body imaging. There are potential benefits of …

Motion-free PET: Compensating for patient respiration in whole-body PET/CT imaging

P Kinahan, A Alessio, S Wollenweber, L Ng… - 2007 - Soc Nuclear Med
672 Objectives: We present a method to compensate for respiratory motion during whole-
body PET imaging. While respiratory gated PET/CT is now clinically feasible, there are …

Investigation of phase and amplitude respiratory gating for whole-body FDG-PET with different respiratory waveform patterns

W Qi, S Ponce, T Xia, M Teshigwara, T Kawano… - 2016 - Soc Nuclear Med
1892 Objectives Respiratory motion is known to blur tumor in thorax and abdomen in whole-
body PET imaging, and thus reduce tumor's standard-uptake-value (SUV). To alleviate this …

Dual-modality respiratory triggering is feasible during a routine PET/MR protocol

M Soussan, C Comtat, V Brulon, O Helal, I Buvat - 2016 - Soc Nuclear Med
242 Objectives For chest and abdominal imaging, respiratory motion can create blurring and
suboptimal quantification for PET imaging. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the …
