Abstract
Parametric imaging allows for quantification without introducing bias due to selection of anatomical regions, and thus enables objective statistical voxel-based comparisons of tracer binding. Several parametric modeling approaches perform well, especially after Gaussian pre-filtering of the dynamic data. However, the semi-quantitative use of SUVR between 70 and 90Â min has comparable agreement with full kinetic modeling, thus supporting its use as a simplified method for quantitative assessment of tracer uptake.
