Capturing Bone Signal in MRI of Pelvis, as a Large FOV Region, Using TWIST Sequence and Generating a 5-Class Attenuation Map for Prostate PET/MRI Imaging

Purpose: Prostate imaging is a major application of hybrid positron emission tomography/magnetic resonance imaging (PET/MRI). Currently, MRI-based attenuation correction (MRAC) for whole-body PET/MRI in which the bony structures are ignored is the main obstacle to successful implementation of the hy...
