Developing an efficient phase-matched attenuation correction method for quiescent period PET in abdominal PET/MRI.

In conclusion, we demonstrated that a data acquisition of 30 seconds achieved phase-matched <i>μ</i>-maps when using specialized CIRCUS data sampling and phase-matched <i>μ</i>-maps improved PET<sub>Q</sub> quantification significantly.
