Systems, methods, and devices for removing prospective motion correction from medical imaging scans
First Claim
1. A system for generating motion de-corrected images in conjunction with a biomedical imaging scan, the system comprising:
- a biomedical image scanner;
one or more detectors configured to capture motion data for an object being scanned by the biomedical image scanner;
one or more computer readable storage devices configured to store a plurality of computer executable instructions; and
one or more hardware computer processors in communication with the one or more computer readable storage devices and configured to execute the plurality of computer executable instructions causing the system to;
use the one or more detectors to capture motion data for the object while scanning the object with the biomedical image scanner;
generate motion tracking data from the motion data, the motion tracking data indicating a position of the object being scanned by the biomedical image scanner;
adjust the biomedical image scanner using the motion tracking data to compensate in real time for object motions while scanning the object to generate raw image data, such that the raw image data generated by the biomedical image scanner can be reconstructed directly into motion-corrected images;
reconstruct motion-corrected images directly from the raw image data; and
generate, based on the raw image data and the motion tracking data, de-corrected image data representative of what the scanner would produce had the scanner not compensated for motion; and
reconstruct de-corrected images based on the de-corrected image data.

Abstract
The disclosure herein provides methods, systems, and devices for removing prospective motion correction from medical imaging scans. In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method for removing motion correction from biomedical imaging scan data comprises tracking, by a computer system, motion of an object being scanned; generating, by the computer system, motion tracking data; adjusting, by the computer system, a biomedical imaging scanner, using the motion tracking data, to compensate in real time for object motion, such that raw image data generated by the scanner can be reconstructed into motion-corrected images; inverting, by the computer system, the motion tracking data; and applying, by the computer system, the inverted motion tracking data to the raw image data to generate de-corrected image data representative of what the scanner would produce had the scanner not compensated for motion, wherein the de-corrected image data can be reconstructed into de-corrected images, wherein the computer system comprises an electronic memory and a computer processor.
