68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/MRI: determining ideal acquisition times to reduce noise and increase image quality

Abstract Background In this study, we investigate the impact of increased PET acquisition time per bed position on lesion detectability, standard uptake value, and image noise in 68Ga-PSMA-11 PET/MRI scans. Methods Scans of twenty patients were analyzed in this study. Patients were injected with 68G...
