Physical and theoretical factors affecting the quantitation of blood flow in positron emission tomography

Positron emission tomography (PET) allows the accurate quantitation of blood flow measurement non-invasively. Four mathematical methods of calculating blood flow from PET scan data of H215O bolus injections were implemented. No gold standard method for determining blood flow exists, so the accuracy...
