Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The mismatch between PET and CT measured for standard low-dose CT and PET, and<br /><br>breath-hold low-dose CT and PET for 1 anatomical location (lung-liver<br /><br>transition)</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The mismatch between PET and CT measured for standard low-dose CT and PET and,<br /><br>breath hold low-dose CT and PET for lung lesions, measured by:<br /><br>• Mismatch between centroids of the lesions on PET and CT<br /><br>• Mismatch between lesions on PET and CT measured with the Jaccard similarity<br /><br>coefficient<br /><br>• Effect of attenuation correction of the CT on the PET reconstruction measured<br /><br>by the mean tracer uptake.</p><br>
