Abstract
A method for positron emission tomography (PET) imaging may include obtaining photon information of photons that are emitted from an object and detected by detector units of a detector of a PET scanner. The method may also include obtaining, based on the photon information and lines of response (LORs), more than one coincidence window width value of the PET scanner. The method may also include determining coincidence events of the photons based on the more than one coincidence window width value.
