Table 2.
Semi-quantification results to any method applied on different structures of the striatum phantom. The indexes of quantification are represented for Binding Potential Index (BPI); Specific Binding Ratio (SBR) and Total Binding Potential Index (TBPI) in the quantification of cavities simulated of the caudate nucleus, putamen and striatum
