Thoracic aortic microcalcification activity in combined positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging
CONCLUSION: Ascending aortic microcalcification analysis in PET-MRI is feasible with comparable findings to PET-CT. RadialVIBE-2 tissue attenuation correction correlates best with the reference standard of PET-CT and is less susceptible to artefact. There remain challenges in segmenting tissue types in PET-MRI reconstructions, and improved attenuation correction methods are required.PMID:38456972 | DOI:10.1007/s00259-024-06670-5
