Optimized dual-time-window protocols for quantitative [18F]flutemetamol and [18F]florbetaben PET studies

Abstract Background A long dynamic scanning protocol may be required to accurately measure longitudinal changes in amyloid load. However, such a protocol results in a lower patient comfort and scanning efficiency compared to static scans. A compromise can be achieved by implementing dual-time-window...
