Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for medical imaging systems. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving one or more image reconstruction parameters defining an image reconstruction process for reconstructing one or more images from medical imaging data, identifying a target hardware allocation based on the one or more image reconstruction parameters, and reconstructing, via computing device hardware as specified by the target hardware allocation, one or more images from the medical imaging data according to the image reconstruction process.

Abstract: A method for correcting emission data from Positron Emission Tomography (PET) or SPECT includes generating a plurality of computed tomography (CT) image data, selecting a portion of the CT image data, processing the selected CT data to generate a plurality of attenuation correction (CTAC) factors at the appropriate energy of the emission data, weighting the CTAC factors to generate an emission attenuation correction map wherein the weights are determined based on the axial location and the slice thickness of the CT data and the axial location and the slice thickness of the PET or SPECT data, and utilizing the generated attenuation correction map to generate an attenuation corrected PET image.
