Joint solution for PET image segmentation, denoising, and partial volume correction

Positron emission tomography (PET) has been extensively used in oncology applications. It provides diagnostic and therapeutic interpretations by measuring tracer activity, which could be related to various physiological and pathological functionalities. It has been used for other diseases, including neurological disorders, infection, and inflammation. In radiation oncology applications, for instance, PET helps localization and staging of the tumors. PET images have high contrast, but low spatial resolution compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT).
