Introduction Positron emission tomography (PET) is a fully quantitative technology for
imaging metabolic pathways and dynamic processes in vivo. Attenuation correction of raw …

In recent years, numerous in vivo molecular imaging probes have been developed. As a
consequence, much has been published on the design and synthesis of molecular imaging …

The recently introduced first integrated whole-body PET/MR scanner allows simultaneous
acquisition of PET and MRI data in humans and, thus, may offer new opportunities …

Attenuation correction (AC) of whole-body PET data in combined PET/MRI tomographs is
expected to be a technical challenge. In this study, a potential solution based on a …

For quantitative PET information, correction of tissue photon attenuation is mandatory.
Generally in conventional PET, the attenuation map is obtained from a transmission scan …

PET/MRI is an emerging dual-modality imaging technology that requires new approaches to
PET attenuation correction (AC). We assessed 2 algorithms for whole-body MRI-based AC …

Purpose The combination of positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance
(MR) tomography in a single device is anticipated to be the next step following PET/CT for …

Purpose Accurate attenuation correction (AC) is essential for quantitative analysis of PET
tracer distribution. In MR, the lack of cortical bone signal makes bone segmentation difficult …

Purpose: To evaluate the feasibility and accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)‐
based treatment planning using pseudo CTs generated through atlas registration. Methods …

Integrated whole‐body PET/MR hybrid imaging combines excellent soft tissue contrast and
various functional imaging parameters provided by MR with high sensitivity and …
