Fig. 3From: The extent to which standardized uptake values reflect FDG phosphorylation in the liver and spleen as functions of time after injection of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucosePercentage of tissue FDG that is phosphorylated as a function of time after FDG injection shown for slow exponential half-times of 40, 50 and 60 min; left panel: Ki/V(0) = 0.0036 ml/min/ml (typical for the liver); right panel: Ki/V(0) = 0.006 ml/min/ml (typical for the spleen)Back to article page
