Figure 3.

Positive correlations between [¹⁸F]FDG uptake in lung parenchyma (LP), central pulmonary arteries (PAs), right ventricle (RV), and hemodynamic parameters (mPAP, PVR). Scatterplots of standardized uptake value ratios (SUVRs) from 109 patients with pulmonary end-stage disease. Ordinate and labeling in the first column applies to each row, respectively. r represents Pearson correlation coefficient. [¹⁸F]FDG = [¹⁸F]fluorodeoxyglucose, mPAP = mean pulmonary artery pressure, PVR = pulmonary vascular resistance.
