Clinical utility of the normal database of 123 I-iodoamphetamine brain perfusion single photon emission computed tomography for statistical analysis using computed tomography-based attenuation correction: a multicenter study

ConclusionUsing the CTAC-NDB, the findings in the vicinity of the cranium became increasingly clear, whereas those in the medial surface of the brain became less defined or remained unchanged. These findings were confirmed via a semiquantitative analysis. Moreover, similar changes in the reduction pattern were observed in the three institutions. Therefore, the new database with CTAC might be applicable in other institutions. Data collected in this study may serve as a CTAC-NDB.
