Computed Tomography-based Attenuation Correction

Computed Tomography-Based Attenuation Correction is a method in medical imaging that uses computed tomography data to estimate attenuation maps for correcting photon attenuation in positron emission tomography, distinguishing itself by relying on the spatially registered X-ray attenuation coefficients from CT scans to model tissue absorption properties.
