Abstract
A system is provided for obtaining a nuclear image of a moving object. The system comprises an input (), a processing unit () and an output (). The input () is provided for receiving a nuclear image and morphological images of the object. The processing unit () is configured to process the morphological images to obtain sparse motion information of the object, to use the sparse motion information and a motion model for obtaining estimated motion information about the object, and to generate a motion-corrected nuclear image based on the estimated motion information and the acquired nuclear image. The output () provides the corrected nuclear image.
