Table 2 CR relative percentage difference between no-array and the anterior (A) part of each array for each sphere size. The CR was estimated for both reconstruction methods (MRAC and off-line DCTAC)

From: Evaluation of 511 keV photon attenuation by a novel 32-channel phased array prospectively designed for cardiovascular hybrid PET/MRI imaging
