467 Objectives The goal is to optimize the dynamic Rb-82 PET reconstruction/acquisition
protocol for maximum detection of reduced regional tracer transport from blood pool to …

253 Objectives: The goal of this study is to optimize the dynamic Rb-82 PET acquisition
protocol in quantitative studies of tracer transport between blood and myocardial tissue …

1091 Objectives The absolute quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) using dynamic
82 Rb PET may provide important clinical information. However, as dynamic imaging and …

123 Objectives In the context of dynamic cardiac imaging, gating information is not routinely
utilized. Our goal is to introduce gated motion correction within dynamic Rb-82 …

Background Suboptimal temporal sampling of left ventricular (LV) blood pool and tissue time-
activity curves (TACs) may introduce bias and increased variability in estimates of …

Routine quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) requires robust and reproducible
processing of dynamic image series. The goal of this study was to evaluate the …

Because the use of factor analysis has been proposed for extracting pure physiologic
temporal or spatial information from dynamic nuclear medicine images, factor analysis …

Abstract Purpose The PET tracer 82 Rb is commonly used to evaluate regional perfusion
defects for the diagnosis of coronary artery disease. There is limited information on the …

P1140 Introduction: Partial volume correction (PVC) for PET myocardial blood flow (MBF)
quantification is typically accomplished by the inclusion of a recovery factor (1− vb) in the …

Background Our aim was to characterize the influence of time-of-flight (TOF) and point
spread function (PSF) recovery corrections, as well as ordered subset expectation …
