Box plots showing the change of ipsilateral cerebellar SUVmax, SD, and AI of EZs. The change of each index was calculated as the difference between G300 s, G150 s and G60 s of each patient and G600 s, respectively. (a) The SUVmax in the ipsilateral cerebellar cortex gradually increased as acquisition time decreased. G60 s-G600 s and G150 s-G600 s were significantly higher than G300 s-G600 s (P < 0.05). (b) The uptake of SD in the ipsilateral cerebellar cortex significantly increased as acquisition time decreased (P < 0.05). (c) There was no significant difference in AI difference between the groups with shortened acquisition time. The differences between G300 s-G600 s and G150 s-G600 s, G300 s-G600 s and G60 s-G600 s and G150 s-G600 s and G60 s-G600 s were not significant (P < 0.05 and Bonferroni correction). The difference in AI between the two time points was marked as ∆AI
