Abstract

Disclosed is a method and apparatus for recording measured data from a patient by taking movements into account by use of a medical device designed both for recording motion-related measured data and for recording nuclear medicine measured data. The method may include recording nuclear medicine measured data by use of the medical device, simultaneously recording motion-related measured data by use of the medical device, determining at least one motion information item relating to at least one movement of the patient and/or at least one movement inside the body of the patient during the ongoing measured data recording by evaluating at least a portion of the previously recorded motion-related measured data, and carrying out motion correction for at least a portion of the nuclear medicine measured data by use of the computational device in parallel with recording the measured data.
