The best known include transverse segmentation , longitudinal segmentation, "key-hole defect," and canalis basilaris medianus (CBM). Transverse segmentation [1-3] may be complete or incomplete. In the complete form the basiocciput is divided by a transverse fissure into an anterior part, sometimes called os basioticum,...

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...
