PET-CT imaging is a vital tool in the diagnosis and management of patients with brain disorders including dementia, epilepsy and cancer. However images are often distorted by patient motion, particularly in demented and paediatric patients. The CI has recently developed a motion tracking and correction method to derive images nearly free of motion effects. This aim of this project is to evaluate its impact on image quality in a variety of patients referred for PET- CT brain investigations.

PET-CT成像是诊断和管理痴呆、癫痫和癌症等脑部疾病患者的重要工具。然而，图像往往是扭曲的病人的运动，特别是在痴呆症和儿科患者。CI最近开发了一种运动跟踪和校正方法，以获得几乎没有运动影响的图像。本项目的目的是评估其对各种患者的PET- CT脑检查图像质量的影响。
