Magnetic Resonace–Based Attenuation Correction for Micro–Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography

Attenuation correction is necessary for quantification in micro–single-photon emission computed tomography (micro-SPECT). In general, this is done based on micro–computed tomographic (micro-CT) images. Derivation of the attenuation map from magnetic resonance (MR) images is difficult because bone an...
