Attenuation Correction of PET Images

Selected Abstract

Attenuation Correction of PET Images with Respiration-Averaged CT Images in PET/CT
Attenuation correction (AC) of PET images with helical CT (HCT) in PET/CT matches only the spatial resolution of CT and PET, not the temporal resolution. We therefore proposed the use of respiration-averaged CT (ACT) to match the temporal resolution of CT and PET and evaluated the improvement of ...
