MR-based respiratory and cardiac motion correction for PET imaging

The hybrid Positron-Emission Tomography (PET) and Magnetic Resonance (MR) technology offers the possibility to combine the high resolution of MR imaging (MRI) with the high molecular sensitivity of PET. This enables simultaneous whole-body data acquisition and fusion of the non-invasive multifunctional MRI with the molecular information of PET.
