Abstract
Methods are provided for recovering component signals or estimates of component signals from combined signals of multiple tracers in the context of imaging multiple PET tracers, a single tracer injected repeatedly, or a combination of tracers using multiple-timepoint or dynamic scanning, where the tracer administrations are simultaneous or staggered in time such that some or all of the PET timeframes, images, data, and/or datasets contain overlapping signals from more than one of the tracer administrations.
