| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
(18)F-FRP170 PET was performed, and cerebral blood flow and metabolism were assessed using (15)O-gas PET in 20 healthy subjects and 52 patients. A region of interest (ROI) was automatically placed in 3 segments of the middle cerebral artery territory in both cerebral hemispheres with a 3-dimensional stereotaxic ROI template using SPM2, and each PET value was determined in each ROI. The ratio of values in the affected versus contralateral hemispheres was calculated for the (18)F-FRP170 PET image.
The specificity and positive-predictive value for a combination of an elevated oxygen extraction fraction and a moderately reduced cerebral oxygen metabolism for detection of an abnormally elevated (18)F-FRP170 ratio (19 ROIs: 12%) were significantly greater than those for the individual categories (elevated oxygen extraction fraction, moderately reduced cerebral oxygen metabolism, or reduced cerebral blood flow).
