MLAA-based attenuation correction of flexible hardware components in hybrid PET/MR imaging

BACKGROUND: Accurate PET quantification demands attenuation correction (AC) for both patient and hardware attenuation of the 511 keV annihilation photons. In hybrid PET/MR imaging, AC for stationary hardware components such as patient table and MR head coil is straightforward, employing CT-derived a...
