Attenuation correction in PET/MR : A performance assessment of UTE-based and Dixon-based methods for PET attenuation correction

Hybrid positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MR) scanners are one of the latest tools available in the field of medical imaging, and are expected to outperform the well-established PET/X-ray computed tomography (CT) scanners in a large range of fields. The perhaps largest chal...
