Distributed versus compartment models for PET receptor studies.

Distributed versus compartment models for PET receptor studies.

Although distributed models are generally accepted as being more realistic than compartment models, use of simpler compartment models is pervasive in nuclear medicine applications, particularly in positron emission tomography (PET). Here, we report on comparisons made between distributed and compart...
