Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions readable and executable by a workstation (18) including at least one electronic processor (20) to perform a quality control (QC) method (100). The method includes: receiving a current QC data set acquired by a pixelated detector (14) and one or more prior QC data sets acquired by the pixelated detector; determining stability levels of detector pixels (16) of the pixelated detector over time from the current QC data set and the one or more prior QC data sets; labeling a detector pixel of the pixelated detector as dead when the stability level determined for the detector pixel is outside of a stability threshold range; and displaying, on a display device (24) operatively connected with the workstation, an identification (28) of the detector pixels labelled as dead.

Abstract: A non-transitory storage medium storing instructions readable and executable by an imaging workstation (18) including at least one electronic processor (20) to perform an image reconstruction method (100). The method includes: receiving emission imaging data (22) from an image acquisition device (12) wherein the emission imaging data has been filtered using an acquisition energy passband (18); generating filtered imaging data by filtering the emission imaging data with a second energy passband (90) that is narrower than an acquisition energy passband; reconstructing the filtered imaging data to generate an intermediate image; estimating one or more scatter correction factors (SCFs) from the intermediate image; and reconstructing the emission imaging data corrected with the estimated SCFs to generate a reconstructed image.

Abstract: Image processing performed by a computer (22) includes iterative image reconstruction or refinement (26, 56) that produces a series of update images ending in an iteratively reconstructed or refined image. A difference image (34, 64) is computed between a first update image (30, 60) and a second update image (32, 62) of the series. The difference image is converted to a feature image (40) and is used in the iterative processing (26, 56) or in post-processing (44) performed on the iteratively reconstructed or refined images or images from different reconstruction or refinement techniques. In another embodiment, first and second image reconstructions (81, 83) are performed to generate respective first and second reconstructed images (80, 82). A difference image (84) is computed between two images each selected from the group: the first reconstructed image, an update image of the first reconstruction, the second reconstructed image, and an update image of the second reconstruction. A feature image is generated from the difference image and used to combine the first and second reconstructed images.

Abstract: A time of flight (TOF) positron emission tomography (PET) image (38) is generated from TOF PET imaging data (10) acquired of a subject using a TOF PET imaging data acquisition device (6). Iterative image reconstruction (30) of the TOF PET imaging data is performed with TOF localization of counts along respective lines of response (LORs) to iteratively update a reconstructed image (32). Values for at least one regularization or filtering parameter are assigned to the TOF PET imaging data or to voxels of the reconstructed image based on an estimated TOF localization resolution for the TOF PET imaging data or voxels. Regularization (34) or filtering (36) of the reconstructed image is performed using the assigned values for the at least one regularization or filtering parameter. In some embodiments, the varying TOF localization resolution for the TOF PET imaging data or voxels is estimated based on related acquisition characteristics such as count rates or operating temperature of the detectors.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions readable and executable by an imaging workstation (14) including at least one electronic processor (16) to perform a dataset generation method (100) operating on emission imaging data acquired of a patient for one or more axial frames at a corresponding one or more bed positions, the method comprising: (a) identifying a frame of interest from the one or more axial frames; (b) generating simulated lesion data by simulating emission imaging data for the frame of interest of at least one simulated lesion placed in the frame of interest; (c) generating simulated frame emission imaging data by simulating emission imaging data for the frame of interest of the patient; (d) determining a normalization factor comprising a ratio of the value of a quantitative metric for the simulated patient data and the value of the quantitative metric for the emission imaging data acquired of the same patient for the frame of interest; and (e) generating a hybrid data set comprising the emission imaging data acquired of the patient for the one or more axial frames at the corresponding one or more bed positions with the frame of interest replaced by a combination of the simulated lesion data scaled by the normalization factor and the emission imaging data acquired of the patient for the frame of interest.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer-readable medium stores instructions readable and executable by a workstation (18) including at least one electronic processor (20) to perform an image reconstruction method (100). The method includes: generating, from received imaging data, a plurality of intermediate images reconstructed without scatter correction from data partitioned into different energy windows; generating a fraction of true counts and a fraction of scatter events in the generated intermediate images; generating a final reconstructed image from the intermediate images, the fraction of true counts in the intermediate images, and the fraction of scatter counts in the intermediate images; and at least one of controlling the non-transitory computer readable medium to store the final image and control a display device (24) to display the final image.

Abstract: In positron emission tomography (PET) imaging, PET imaging data (22) having TOF localization is reconstructed. TOF image reconstruction (30) is performed on the PET imaging data to produce a TOF reconstructed image (32). The TOF image reconstruction utilizes the TOF localization of the PET imaging data. Non-TOF image reconstruction (40) is also performed on the PET imaging data to produce a non-TOF reconstructed image (42). The non-TOF image reconstruction does not utilize the TOF localization of the PET imaging data. A comparison image (50) is computed which is indicative of differences between the TOF reconstructed image and the non TOF reconstructed image. An adjustment (54) is determined for the TOF image reconstruction based on the comparison image, such as alignment correction of an attenuation map (18), and the TOF image reconstruction is repeated on the PET imaging data with the determined adjustment to produce an adjusted TOF reconstructed image.

Abstract: A radioemission scanner (12) is operated to acquire tomographic radioemission data of a radiopharmaceutical in a subject in an imaging field of view (FOV). An imaging system is operated to acquire extension imaging data of the subject in an extended FOV disposed outside of and adjacent the imaging FOV along an axial direction (18). A distribution of the radiopharmaceutical in the subject in the extended FOV is estimated based on the extension imaging data, and further based on a database (32) of reference subjects. The tomographic radioemission data are reconstructed to generate a reconstructed image (26) of the subject in the imaging FOV. The reconstruction includes correcting the reconstructed image for scatter from the extended FOV into the imaging FOV based on the estimated distribution of the radiopharmaceutical in the subject in the extended FOV.
