A and B Maximum intensity projection of a patient suffering from melanoma with an equivalent scan duration of 120 s without (A) and with a 3 mm Gaussian filter (B) applied. The lines indicate the extent of the useful aFOV of 92 cm. The increase in image noise towards the end of the aFOV is clearly visible in both reconstructions. C Axial slices through the brain for the 120 s acquisition with 3 mm Gaussian filter at the calculated edge of the useful aFOV (POS-458) and at three additional positions towards the end of the aFOV still showing clinical sufficient IQ for the brain
