2045 Objectives Recent automated volume of interest (VOI) defining tools are expect to
facilitate PET data analysis. Four freeware tools, namely TOADS (TS; Bazan et al., 2007) …

2296 Objectives Software packages of automated method for volumes of interest (VOIs) are
widely used. However, we reported (JNM 52: 2045) that tested automated methods …

1978 Objectives Partial volume effect is a considerable issue in PET striatum study. In this
work we evaluate several sophisticated partial volume correction (PVC) algorithms …

2502 Introduction: Dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging is widely performed to evaluate the
function of presynaptic dopaminergic neurons and is particularly useful in the differential …

Residual Space Detection (RSD) has been previously shown to improve upon traditional
methods for detecting low-magnitude dopamine (DA) release in the human brain by use of …

Abstract Purpose 18 F-FP-CIT positron emission tomography (PET) is an effective imaging
for dopamine transporters. In usual clinical practice, 18 F-FP-CIT PET is analyzed visually or …

Objective In positron emission tomography (PET) of the dopaminergic system, quantitative
measurements of nigrostriatal dopamine function are useful for differential diagnosis. A …

3001 Objectives: PET is an invaluable molecular imaging tool that visualizes the
dopaminergic system. Quantitative measurements of nigrostriatal dopamine functions are …

P572 Introduction: One of the neurodegenerative diseases, Parkinson9s disease, is often
not identified until they have advanced considerably. One commonly used method for early …

2131 Objectives The PET ligand 11 C-PE2I is highly selective for the dopamine transporter
(DAT) and parametric images based on a dynamic 11 C-PE2I scan, showing DAT …
