  • DIAGNOSTIC APPARATUS FOR NUCLEAR MEDICINE AND ESTIMATION METHOD OF ATTENUATION COEFFICIENT IMAGE
    Publication number: 20230301605
    Abstract: A diagnostic apparatus for nuclear medicine executes an attenuation correction processing with a high degree of precision relative to the radiation image and an estimation method of an attenuation coefficient image without irradiating radiation to an examination subject using an external radiation source. The diagnostic apparatus has a memory storage, a reconstruction element, a position deviation calculating element, a position correction element generating the corrected attenuation coefficient image, and a attenuation correction element using a corrected attenuation coefficient image HF and a concurrent counting data DK.
