Automated assessment of degenerative pathology in the lumbar spine on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) requires access to large-scale datasets of expert-annotated radiological gradings. In contrast, segmentation pseudo-labels can be generated by automated tools at negligible radiologist cost.

The paper presents a method for the BIC-MAC challenge, aiming to generate pseudo‑CT images from NAC‑PET, DIXON MRI, and a topogram, and to evaluate both the pseudo‑CT and the resulting attenuation‑corrected PET. The authors improve upon a 3D U‑Net baseline by focusing on loss design: they compute an L1 error in the Carney attenuation‑coefficient space, weighted by anatomical region, and incorporate DIXON MRI as additional input only after this loss was applied. Finally, they fuse two independently trained models via a fixed convex combination, achieving better performance than either model alone and topping the public validation leaderboard.
