ABSTRACT:
A method for determining component misalignment in a multi-modality imaging system including a first modality unit, a second modality unit, and a table, includes imaging an object with the first modality unit to generate a first image, imaging the object with the second modality unit to generate a second image, and determining a table alignment status using the first and second images.
