Abstract
A computer-implemented method for motion compensation of medical imaging data includes estimating, via a processor, non-periodic motion of a myocardium of a heart due to respiration and/or other body movements throughout a positron emission tomography (PET) scan based on list-mode emission data acquired during the PET scan of the heart of a subject. The method also includes performing, via the processor, event-by-event motion-corrected list-mode reconstruction on the list-mode emission data to generate cardiac images with the non-periodic motion removed.
