| Abstract | Respiratory motion in emission tomography leads to reduced image quality. Proposed correction methodology has been concentrating on the use of respiratory synchronised acquisitions leading to gated frames. Such frames however are of low signal to noise ratio as a result of containing reduced statistics. Therefore a method accounting for respiratory motion effects without affecting the statistical quality of the reconstructed images is necessary. In this work we describe the implementation of an elastic transformation within a list-mode based reconstruction for the correction of respiratory motion over the thorax. The developed algorithm was evaluated using datasets of the NCAT phantom generated at different points throughout the respiratory cycle. List mode data based PET simulated frames were subsequently produced by combining the NCAT datasets with a Monte Carlo simulation. Transformation parameters accounting for respiratory motion were estimated according to an elastic registration of the NCAT dynamic CT images and were subsequently applied during the image reconstruction of the original emission list mode data. The One-pass list mode EM (OPL-EM) algorithm was modified to integrate the elastic transformation. The corrected images were compared with those produced using an affine transformation of list mode data prior to reconstruction, as well as with uncorrected respiratory motion average images. Results demonstrate that although both correction techniques considered lead to significant improvements in accounting for respiratory motion artefacts in the lungs and heart, the elastic transformation based correction leads to a more uniform improvement across the lung field for different lesion sizes. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
