ABSTRACT:
A method for producing a nuclear medicine image utilizing emission data in an iterative reconstruction process. The starting point for the iterative process is based on internal structure information. The internal structure information can be based on data that is different from the nuclear emission data used in the reconstruction itself, for example CT X-Ray attenuation data, Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Ultrasound Imaging or nuclear transmission data.
