ABSTRACT:
A method of reconstructing time-of-flight (TOF) images includes obtaining a profile of a subject to be imaged in an examination region (14) of an imaging system (10), Events associated with radiation emitted from the subject are detected and converted to electronic data. Electronic data attributable to radiation events located outside the profile are removed and images are reconstructed from the remaining electronic data.
