Evaluation of Methods for Obtaining an Image Derived Input Function from Dynamic PET-images

Dynamic PET is a technique to follow the uptake kinetics of radioactive labelled molecules in the human body. The kinetic behaviour may be analysed to acquire parameters, such as perfusion of blood to tissue, with the knowledge of the blood activity time curve (also called input function). This is u...
