Abstract

The present disclosure is related to systems and methods for reconstructing a positron emission tomography (PET) image. The method includes obtaining PET data of a subject. The PET data may correspond to a plurality of voxels in a reconstructed image domain. The method includes obtaining a motion signal of the subject. The method includes obtaining motion amplitude data. The motion amplitude data may indicate a motion range for each voxel of the plurality of voxels. The method includes determining gating data based at least in part on the motion amplitude data. The gating data may include useful percentage counts each of which corresponds to at least one voxel of the plurality of voxels. The method includes gating the PET data based on the gating data and the motion signal. The method includes reconstructing a PET image of the subject based on the gated PET data.
