System and method for normalizing standardized uptake values in brain positron emission tomography (PET) images
Systems and methods are for analyzing Positron Emission Tomography (PET) image data. The methods may include generating a set of standardized uptake values (SUVs) of global or localized PET data for voxels within a selected region of interest (ROI), normalizing the set of SUVs by generating a set of SUVPs where each corresponding SUVP for each SUV is obtained using the formula: SUVP=(SUV−M)/S, wherein M corresponds to a peak value for the set of SUVs, and S corresponds to a spread for the set of SUVs, and generating a normalized image based on the set of SUVPs for the ROI. The systems may include any suitable device for PET image analysis performing the methods.
