From: Aortic valve imaging using 18F-sodium fluoride: impact of triple motion correction
Test–retest valve PET imaging for a patient before and after motion and background blood pool corrections. Standard and ECG-MC images present less specific uptake patterns at the areas with calcification, while 3 × MC images show reproducible uptake patterns for the two scans. ECG-MC = cardiac contraction motion-corrected, 3 × MC = triple motion-corrected, SUVmax = maximum standardized uptake value, TBRmax = maximum target-to-background ratio, SNR = signal-to-noise ratio
