Abstract
A framework for multi-scan image processing. A single real anatomic image of a region of interest is first acquired. One or more emission images of the region of interest are also acquired. One or more synthetic anatomic images may be generated based on the one or more emission images. One or more deformable registrations of the real anatomic image to the one or more synthetic anatomic images are performed to generate one or more registered anatomic images. Attenuation correction may then be performed on the one or more emission images using the one or more registered anatomic images to generate one or more attenuation corrected emission images.
