Figure 1
Block diagram showing how the Excel spreadsheet provided in Puri et al. (1) calculates [18F]NaF bone plasma clearance (Ki) values. The left-hand side column within the Excel spreadsheet lists the inputs (activities, times, well-counter counts, bone uptake, etc.) with arrows showing how they are used in the calculations shown on the right-hand side column. PET, positron emission tomography; ROI, region of interest; CPM, counts per minute; AUC, area under the curve.
