↵* One individual had poor fit for data from thalamus using all models tested, and these outlier data from thalamus of this individual were excluded. Regional VT values were generated using metabolite-corrected arterial input function and 90-min dynamic data.
Data are mean ± SD, with %COV for each estimated parameter in parentheses.
