How Analyze was Used
“To avoid tissue inhomogeneity, particularly near organ boundaries, the VOIs were defined within the boundaries of the normal-tissue organs, as visualized on the CT images and mapped to the corresponding emission scans using shape-based interpolation to extract the 18F activities with the ANALYZE analysis software (version 11).”
