Automatic delineation of functional lung volumes with 68Ga-ventilation/perfusion PET/CT

Abstract Background Functional volumes computed from 68Ga-ventilation/perfusion (V/Q) PET/CT, which we have shown to correlate with pulmonary function test parameters (PFTs), have potential diagnostic utility in a variety of clinical applications, including radiotherapy planning. An automatic segmen...
