[HTML][HTML] Empirical derivation of the reference region for computing diagnostic sensitive 18fluorodeoxyglucose ratios in Alzheimer's disease based on the ADNI sample
Careful selection of the reference region for non-quantitative positron emission tomography
(PET) analyses is critically important for Region of Interest (ROI) data analyses. We
introduce an empirical method of deriving the most suitable reference region for computing
neurodegeneration sensitive 18fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET ratios based on the dataset
collected by the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) study. Candidate
reference regions are selected based on a heat map of the difference in coefficients of …
