Hyperpolarised metabolic imaging suffers from low
resolution, which can hamper quantification due to
partial volume effects. In this work, we implement and
evaluate Partial-Volume Correction (PVC), which is a
correction method applied in Positron Emission
Tomography. It is possible to improve spatial resolution
characteristics at the boundaries of the object with
PVC.
