Non-linear fitting of one-tissue compartment model to plasma and tissue time-activity curves (TACs) to estimate K1, k2 and Vb. In addition, all regions are assumed to contain white matter (WM); the WM volume fraction is also estimated as one of parameters. Parameter estimates are restricted to the following values: Region K1 K1/k2 fWM(%) Vb(%) All 0 - 10 1e-5 - 500 0-75 0-8 Parameters: 1) Plasma file (corrected for labeled metabolites) 2) Blood file 3) Tissue TAC file (*.dft) 4) Name of WM region 5) Fit end time (duration) 6) Result file 7) Fitted tissue TAC file (optional) Options: -SD Standard deviations are calculated and saved in results (default) -CL 95% Confidence limits are calculated and saved in results -n SDs or confidence limits are not calculated nor reported -Vb=<Vb(%)> Enter a fixed Vb; fitted by default. -R=<Reference region name or filename> Optional reference region is used only to calculate DVR. e.g.: fitk2wm a00919ap.kbq a00919ab.kbq a00919.dft wm 60 a00919k2.res or: fitk2wm -Vb=4.5 -R=cer p02apc.kbq p02ab.kbq p02.dft wm 60 p02k2.htm See also: logan, lhsol, fitk2, fitk4, fit_h2o, p2t_v3c, dftweigh, dftcbv Keywords: DFT, modelling, distribution volume, white matter
