Region-Weighted Losses and Model Fusion for Cross-Modal PET Attenuation Correction

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.
