MRI-based attenuation correction for PET/MRI: a novel approach combining pattern recognition and atlas registration.

UNLABELLED: For quantitative PET information, correction of tissue photon attenuation is mandatory. Generally in conventional PET, the attenuation map is obtained from a transmission scan, which uses a rotating radionuclide source, or from the CT scan in a combined PET/CT scanner. In the case of PE...
