Positron-based attenuation correction for Positron Emission Tomography data using MCNP6 code
This paper presents the Monte Carlo simulation of the attenuation correction for Positron Emission Tomography (PET) data using MCNP6 code. Two attenuation correction maps have been generated, one for correcting the attenuation effect in a homogeneous phantom, which is a cylindrical volume of water a...
