We confront different models for medium modifications of the electromagnetic correlation function to recent dimuon spectra from the NA60 collaboration for central In-In collisions at the CERN-SPS. In the low-mass region (M \lesssim 1.0 GeV), we evaluate medium modifications of the spectral properties of \rho-, \omega- and \phi-mesons. In the intermediate-mass region (M>1.0 GeV), we employ schematic models for the mixing of vector and axialvector current correlators, which provide a mechanism for chiral-symmetry restoration.
