This seminar is intended to provide a broad overview of tracer kinetic modeling. While the basic underlying concepts are quite simple, there are innumerable details which bear close consideration when electing to utilize these methods to characterize the physiologic properties of various tissues in vivo. Multiple steps are involved in optimization of data acquisition and modeling, all of which must be appropriately adapted to the underlying unknowns. Participants should come away from this seminar with an understanding of these steps and a grasp of what considerations arise in planning and executing tracer kinetic studies.
