FIGURE 1. Pictograph of steps for generating parametric images. On top is series of four spot images taken at sequential time points. Spatially identical pixel (in green) has been selected from each image and fit to a line. Slope (m) is placed in image matrix at corresponding point.

FIGURE 2. Top row shows parametric images of patient 1. Generated isorate contours of 0.7 and -1.8 cpm are displayed on anterior view and 1.2 and 2.4 cpm are shown on posterior view. Isolevels are also superimposed on corresponding summed planar images in bottom row.
