Direct Parametric Maps Estimation from Dynamic PET Data: An Iterated Conditional Modes Approach

We propose and test a novel approach for direct parametric image reconstruction of dynamic PET data. We present a theoretical description of the problem of PET direct parametric maps estimation as an inference problem, from a probabilistic point of view, and we derive a simple iterative algorithm, b...
