Attenuation Correction of Long Axial Field-of-View Positron Emission Tomography Using Synthetic Computed Tomography Derived from the Emission Data: Application to Low-Count Studies and Multiple Tracers

Attenuation Correction of Long Axial Field-of-View Positron Emission Tomography Using Synthetic Computed Tomography Derived from the Emission Data: Application to Low-Count Studies and Multiple Tracers

Recent advancements in PET/CT, including the emergence of long axial field-of-view (LAFOV) PET/CT scanners, have increased PET sensitivity substantially. Consequently, there has been a significant reduction in the required tracer activity, shifting the primary source of patient radiation dose exposu...
