Patent ID: 11925498

Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to reconstructing an image. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, identifying a plurality of first scan data sets and a second scan data set from PET scan data, wherein each of the first scan data sets corresponds to an intra-crystal Compton scattering event occurred in a plurality of crystals of a detector and includes two or more first single event data groups, and each of the first single event data groups comprises an energy value less than a preset first energy threshold, the second scan data set comprises one or more second single event data groups and each of the second single event data groups comprises an energy value exceed a preset second energy threshold; for each of the plurality of first scan data sets: searching the second scan data set for a target second single event data group which matches with the first scan data set; obtaining first coincidence event data from each of the first single event data groups in the first scan data set and the target second single event data group as coincidence event data recovered from an intra-crystal Compton scattering event corresponding to the first scan data set; reconstructing an image with the first coincidence event data and second coincidence event data which involves coincidence events corresponding to the second scan data set.
