Improved quantitation and reproducibility in multi-PET/CT lung studies by combining CT information

Abstract Background Matched attenuation maps are vital for obtaining accurate and reproducible kinetic and static parameter estimates from PET data. With increased interest in PET/CT imaging of diffuse lung diseases for assessing disease progression and treatment effectiveness, understanding the ext...
