Abstract

See full text

A method is disclosed for recording and processing measurement data from a hybrid imaging device including a first partial device for a first imaging modality and a second partial device for emission tomography. In at least one embodiment, the method includes: performance of measurement data recording with the first partial device, wherein successive different table positions are approached during the measurement data recording; recording of emission tomography measurement data with the second partial device during the performance of the measurement data recording with the first partial device at the different table positions; assignment of the recorded emission tomography measurement data to the different table positions; changing of the emission tomography measurement data assigned to different table positions with respect to the data volume in such a way that the recording times corresponding to the changed data volumes are matched to each other at different table positions; and reconstruction of an emission tomography image from the changed emission tomography measurement data. At least one embodiment of the invention further relates to a hybrid imaging device designed to perform the method.
