It produces signals based on the cardiac-pulmonary motion of an animal in real-time. The system with the non-invasive gating consists of a digital signal processor （DSP）, an electrocardiography （ECG） detection circuit and a thermoeouple circuit. An enhanced R wave detection algorithm based on zero crossing counts is used to adjust the low sample frequency associated with the respiratory rate of an animal. The thermocouple recognizes the respiration phase by sensing the temperature changes of the nasal airflow of an animal. The proposed gating can accurately generate the gating signal for freely breathing mice （weight of around 0.03 kg）, and its respiratory signal is too weak to be detected. Apart from non-invasiveness, compared with other existing gating techniques, it occupies minimal space at lower cost. Actually, it can be used in micro-computed tomography （CT） and other systems needed to detect the cardiac-pulmonary motion. Several tests validate that the proposed cardiac-pulmonary gating can generate the gating signal as required. By using the gating technique, the image resolution is improved.展开更多
