    Graphical estimation of occupancy and VND of GSK189254. Occupancy is given by slope and VND by intercept with x-axis. Each data point represents difference in VT for single ROI for individual subjects before and 4 h after GSK189254 administration at 100-μg (n = 1) (A), 50-μg (n = 3) (B), 25-μg (n = 2) (C), and 10-μg (n = 3) (D) doses.
