Title:     Quantitative Strategies for PET Imaging: Challenges and Opportunities

Abstract: Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging allows the production of high resolution images of radio-pharmaceutical distribution in humans and animals. With the use of appropriate targeted radioactive molecules combined with tracer kinetic modeling, a myriad of physiological and pharmacologic parameters can be assayed in vivo. This presentation will review modern PET quantitative techniques for image analysis and statistical methods. Examples where results can be misleading without use of full quantification are presented. Recent, novel and cutting-edge methods including direct reconstruction of parametric images are also shown.
