Abstract
Our proposed method using an NIST-traceable 68Ge/68Ga source identified bias in values obtained using dose calibrators and PET scanners, and reduced SUV variability to within 5% across different models of PET scanners at five sites. Our protocol using a standard source has considerable potential for harmonizing the SUV when contemporary PET scanners are involved in multicenter studies.
