Reference SUV and pancreatic SUVR

Method	Reference SUV		α			Pancreatic SUVR-1
Method	HC	T1DM	HC	T1DM	All subjects	HC	T1DM	P value	% difference
1. SUV(+,spleen)	4.3 (17)	3.7 (57)				4.3 (16)	1.8 (46)	0.001	57
2. SUV(+,renal cortex)	3.5 (21)	2.3 (46)				5.6 (21)	3.6 (45)	0.056	35
3. SUV(+,spleen)/α_spleen	10 (17)^*	8.8 (57)^*	0.36 (26)	0.50 (41)	0.41 (37)	1.2 (23)^*	0.18 (197)^*	0.001	85
4. SUV(+,renal cortex)/α_renal	7.2 (21)^*	4.6 (46)^*	0.45 (25)	0.55 (31)	0.49 (28)	2.2 (26)^*	1.2 (63)^*	0.056	44

V_ND values and α ratios were derived from SUVs using methods 1 and 3. See text for details. Data are expressed as mean (COV%). Group differences in pancreatic SUVR-1 were compared using t test

α_Spleen and α_renal from all subjects were used for calculation
