Estimation of a PET AIF using DSC MRI

Bayesian modeling and parameter estimation predict arterial input functions for H ₂ [ ¹⁵ O] PET using information from whole-brain PET tracer inflows and DSC MRI. Validation of normalized arterial input functions was achieved in 18 patients with clinically significant cerebrovascular disease. The approach may be a useful adjunct to perfusion studies on the new generation of PET/MRI scanners.
