How Analyze was Used
“For each patient, PK11195 BP [binding potential] values in the parietal, occipital, frontal, temporal, ventral striatum, caudate, putamen and thalamus regions were calculated by applying standardised object maps to normalized 11C-[R]-PK11195 BP images in Analyze software (Analyze AVW).”
