Simultaneous PET-MRI: a new approach for functional and morphological imaging

…, K Uludag, SR Cherry, CD Claussen, BJ Pichler - Nature medicine, 2008 - nature.com
Noninvasive imaging at the molecular level is an emerging field in biomedical research.
This paper introduces a new technology synergizing two leading imaging methodologies: …

MRI-based attenuation correction for PET/MRI: a novel approach combining pattern recognition and atlas registration

…, M Brady, B Schölkopf, BJ Pichler - Journal of nuclear …, 2008 - Soc Nuclear Med
For quantitative PET information, correction of tissue photon attenuation is mandatory.
Generally in conventional PET, the attenuation map is obtained from a transmission scan, which …

Simultaneous acquisition of multislice PET and MR images: initial results with a MR-compatible PET scanner

…, Y Wu, MS Judenhofer, J Qi, BJ Pichler… - Journal of Nuclear …, 2006 - Soc Nuclear Med
PET and MRI are powerful imaging techniques that are largely complementary in the
information they provide. We have designed and built a MR-compatible PET scanner based on …

MRI-based attenuation correction for whole-body PET/MRI: quantitative evaluation of segmentation-and atlas-based methods

…, P Aschoff, F Steinke, T Beyer, BJ Pichler… - Journal of Nuclear …, 2011 - Soc Nuclear Med
PET/MRI is an emerging dual-modality imaging technology that requires new approaches to
PET attenuation correction (AC). We assessed 2 algorithms for whole-body MRI-based AC (…
