eng Abstract:
Dynamic medical imaging is concerned with acquisition and analysis of a sequence of images of the same region of a body during time. In nuclear medicine, each pixel of an image is the sum of particles coming from an applied radioactive tracer from the body in a specific time-interval. Hence, each observed image is a superposition of an unknown number of underlaying organ images. The aim of functional analysis is to separate the images of biologic organs and related time-activity curves from the sequence of images.
