DESCRIPTION:Positron Emission Tomography (PET) imaging allows the productio
 n of high resolution images of radio-pharmaceutical distribution in humans
  and animals. With the use of appropriate targeted radioactive molecules c
 ombined with tracer kinetic modeling\, a myriad of physiological and\nphar
 macologic parameters can be assayed in vivo. This presentation will review
  modern PET quantitative techniques for image analysis and\nstatistical me
 thods. Examples where results can be misleading without use of full quanti
 fication are presented. Recent\, novel and cutting-edge methods including 
 direct reconstruction of parametric images are also shown.\n\nCo-sponsored
