Problems solved by technology

However, there is no clear correspondence between the radioactivity distribution of PET and the attenuation image of γ-rays, so the accuracy and reliability of this method are low
In addition, in order to perform attenuation correction on PET whole-body imaging, another typical approach is to use CT scans to cover the entire human body to obtain attenuation images of gamma rays throughout the body, but this method increases the dose of CT radiation and increases the impact on the human body. s damage

Embodiment Construction

[0051] The core idea of ​​the present invention is to provide a method for obtaining a PET image attenuation coefficient, which specifically includes:

[0052] Acquiring the PET data of the first predetermined section, and obtaining the PET image of the first predetermined section according to the PET data of the first predetermined section, the PET image of the first predetermined section includes the PET image of the first partial section and A PET image of the second partial segment, and segmenting the PET image of the second partial segment to obtain a first sub-region and a second sub-region;

[0053] Acquiring CT data of a second predetermined section, the first predetermined section covers the second predetermined section, and the CT data of the second predetermined section includes CT data of a first partial section;

[0054] According to the pixel data included in the PET image of the first partial section and the CT data of the first partial section, obtain a mapping...

Abstract

The invention relates to an acquisition method of a PET image attenuation coefficient and a method and system for attenuation correction. Under the circumstance based on regional CT scanning, the CT value of a first sub region, for example, a tone tissue, can be objectively acquired by means of a mapping relationship between the CT value of the CT scanning region and the pixel value of a PET scanning region, and a first attenuation coefficient of the first sub region is quantificationally acquired according to the CT value of the first sub region. Compared with direct assignment on the attenuation coefficient on the first sub region of the bone tissue after image cutting, the result is more accurate and reliable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of medical technology, in particular to a method for acquiring PET image attenuation coefficients, a method and system for attenuation correction. Background technique [0002] PET / CT equipment (Positron Emission Tomography / X-ray Computed Tomography, full name PositronEmission Tomography / Computed Tomography) is a combination of PET (functional metabolic imaging) and CT (anatomical structure imaging) two imaging technologies A new type of imaging equipment that is organically combined. Specifically, PET technology is to inject radiolabeled drugs into the human body, then use detectors to detect the annihilation of radiolabeled drugs in various organs of the human body, and obtain tomographic images of human organs according to the annihilation event, and at the same time apply CT technology for The distribution of radiolabeled drugs in the human body can be precisely located, making this machine have the advantages of...
