Impact of attenuation correction on clinical [(18)F]FDG brain PET in combined PET/MRI

BACKGROUND: In PET/MRI, linear photon attenuation coefficients for attenuation correction (AC) cannot be directly derived, and cortical bone is, so far, usually not considered. This results in an underestimation of the average PET signal in PET/MRI. Recently introduced MR-AC methods predicting bone...
