Abstract

See full text

Described here are systems and methods for reconstructing images from limited angle positron emission tomography (“PET”) data acquired using a PET system with a partial-ring detector configuration, such as an in-beam PET system. The reconstruction process is specifically designed to account for the limited angular coverage of the partial-ring detector by implementing a reduced angle system matrix in an iterative reconstruction process.
