Definitions of perfusion metrics

Metric Definition Unit
Ingress
Imax Maximum intensity AU
Onset Time when intensity exceeds 5% of maximum s
Rise time Time from 10% to 90% of maximum s
Inflow slope Rate of intensity increase (10%–90%) AU/s
TTP Time from onset to maximum s
T1/2 Time from onset to 50% of maximum s
AUC50% Area under curve from onset to 50% of maximum AU
AUC100% Area under curve from onset to maximum AU
Egress
T80% Time to drop from maximum to 80% s
Outflow slope Rate of intensity decrease (max → 80%) AU/s
Iend Relative intensity at end of recording AU
Perfusion indices
TR T1/2/TTP /
Inflow/Outflow ratio Inflow slope/Outflow slope /
