For quantification of hepatic [(18)F]FDG uptake, the dual blood supply to the liver must be considered. In contrast to the arterial input, however, the portal venous blood supply to the liver cannot be monitored directly by PET because of the inaccessibility of the portal vein on PET scans. In this study, we investigated whether the dual hepatic input can be predicted from the measurable arterial input. Moreover, we assessed the effect of different input models on the rate constants of the standard 3-compartment model describing regional uptake of FDG.
