Comparing 511 keV Attenuation Maps Obtained from Different Energy Mapping Methods for CT Based Attenuation Correction of PET Data
Introduction: The advent of dual-modality PET/CT scanners has revolutionized clinical oncology by improving lesion localization and facilitating treatment planning for radiotherapy. In addition, the use of CT images for CT-based attenuation correction (CTAC) decreases the overall scanning time and creates a noise-free attenuation map (6map). CTAC methods include scaling, s...
متن کاملMeasurement of the X-ray mass attenuation coefficients of silver in the 5-20 keV range.
The X-ray mass attenuation coefficients of silver were measured in the energy range 5-20 keV with an accuracy of 0.01-0.2% on a relative scale down to 5.3 keV, and of 0.09-1.22% on an absolute scale to 5.0 keV. This analysis confirms that with careful choice of foil thickness and careful correction for systematics, especially including harmonic contents at lower energies, the X-ray attenuation ...
متن کاملMeasurement of the x-ray mass attenuation coefficients of gold in the 38–50-keV energy range
We used synchrotron x rays to measure the x-ray mass attenuation coefficients of gold at nine energies from 38 to 50 keV with accuracies of 0.1%. Our results are much more accurate than previous measurements in this energy range. A comparison of our measurements with calculated mass attenuation coefficients shows that our measurements fall almost exactly midway between the XCOM and FFAST calcul...

متن کاملMeasurement of the x-ray mass- attenuation coefficients of gold, derived quantities between 14 keV and 21 keV and determination of the bond lengths of gold
The x-ray mass-attenuation coefficients of gold are measured at 91 energies between 14 keV and 21 keV using synchrotron radiation. The measurements are accurate to between 0.08% and 0.1%. The photoelectric mass-absorption coefficients and the imaginary component of the form factors of gold are also determined. The results include the LI edge and are the most accurate and extensive gold dataset ...
