SUV-quantification of physiological lung tissue in an integrated PET/MR-system: Impact of lung density and bone tissue

PURPOSE: The aim of the study was to investigate the influence of lung density changes as well as bone proximity on the attenuation correction of lung standardized uptake values (SUVs). METHODS AND MATERIALS: 15 patients with mostly oncologic diseases were examined in 18F-FDG-PET/CT and subsequently...
