FIGURE 3

Plasma concentrations of parent radioligand are higher in sedated scans. Time–activity curves show percentage SUV vs. time (min) for baseline (◯) vs. propofol (▲) scans. Peak is higher for sedated scans, consistent with our higher calculation of AUC for propofol (5,418 SUV·min) vs. baseline (4,803 SUV·min) scans. Inset shows data from 0 to 10 min, and larger graph shows data from entire scan. Of note, there appears to be little variation in tails of blood curves.
