Abstract
PET-MR is increasingly used in a range of clinical indications, though its use for quantitative brain PET research has not been widely reported. To isolate and evaluate MR-based attenuation correction (MR-AC) effects on fitted PET kinetic model parameters, we used a previously reported atlas-based method to synthesize CTs from structural MR scans, substituted for the CTs acquired in a dynamic PET-...
