From: The kinetics of 18F-FDG in lung cancer: compartmental models and voxel analysis
Parametric maps of SUV, K1 and Vb in a representative patient. Transaxial, lateral and frontal views of thoracic CT image: the primary lung cancer is highlighted by red circle (a). Map of SUV (b) within primary lung cancer over-imposed on thoracic CT image (b). Voxel-wise parametric maps of K1 and Vb obtained with 3K model in primary lung cancer over-imposed on thoracic CT image (c and d). CT, computed tomography; SUV, standardized uptake value; K1, 18F-FDG transport rate from plasma to tissue; Vb, blood volume fraction
