Pavese N, Rivero-Bosch M, Lewis SJ, Whone AL, Brooks DJ. Progression of monoaminergic dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease: a longitudinal 18F-dopa PET study. Neuroimage. June 2011;56(3):1463-1468.
Publication Date
June 2011
How Analyze was Used
“The standard object map was applied to the spatially normalised K i maps and the values for specific 18F-dopa uptake in individual regions were extracted using ANALYZE 8.1 software.”
