Boxplots of the image quality score (IQS), which is defined as nondiagnostic = 0, poor = 1, moderate = 2 and good = 3; the image noise (blood pool), the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) against PET acquisition time in minutes per bed (mpb). Note that the image quality slightly but progressively decreases in each boxplot towards lower PET acquisition times. Also the SNR and CNR decrease with lower acquisition times, while the image noise increases.</p
