[0002] Positron emission tomography (PET) is an important medical imaging technology that is widely used in tumor detection, heart disease diagnosis, and neurological disease research. PET images provide high-resolution functional imaging information by detecting the distribution of radioactive tracers in the body. However, due to the influence of factors such as patient movement, heartbeat, and breathing, PET images are prone to blur and noise during the acquisition process, which not only affects the clarity and accuracy of the image, but may also lead to misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis. In addition, dynamic PET images face complex texture changes and reference point selection problems in practical applications, requiring more precise image processing technology to improve image quality and diagnostic results.
