The power of FDG-PET to detect treatment effects is increased by glucose correction using a Michaelis constant

BACKGROUND: We recently showed improved between-subject variability in our [(18)F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) experiments using a Michaelis-Menten transport model to calculate the metabolic tumor glucose uptake rate extrapolated to the hypothetical condition of glucose...
