Use of population input functions for reduced scan duration whole-body Patlak 18F-FDG PET imaging

Use of population input functions for reduced scan duration whole-body Patlak 18F-FDG PET imaging

Abstract Whole-body Patlak images can be obtained from an acquisition of first 6 min of dynamic imaging over the heart to obtain the arterial input function (IF), followed by multiple whole-body sweeps up to 60 min pi. The use of a population-averaged IF (PIF) could exclude the first dynamic scan an...
