Motion

M. Dawood, European Institute of Molecular Imaging, Münster

Results: Capturing the motion

Optimal gating is achieved with amplitude based gating using 8 gates

M. Dawood, European Institute of Molecular Imaging, Münster

No change in noise properties with amplitude or time based gatingNoise increases proportionally with the number og gates
