Reproducibility of compartmental modelling of 18F-FDG PET/CT to evaluate lung inflammation

Abstract Introduction Compartmental modelling is an established method of quantifying 18F-FDG uptake; however, only recently has it been applied to evaluate pulmonary inflammation. Implementation of compartmental models remains challenging in the lung, partly due to the low signal-to-noise ratio com...
