abstract = {In vivo imaging for the A1 adenosine receptors (A1ARs) with
positron emission tomography (PET) using
8-cyclopentyl-3-(3-[18F]fluoropropyl)-1-propylxanthine
([18F]CPFPX) has become an important tool for studying
physiologic processes quantitatively in mice. However, the
measurement of arterial input functions (AIFs) on mice is a
method with restricted applicability because of the small
total blood volume and the related difficulties in
withdrawing blood. Therefore, the aim of this study was to
extract an appropriate [18F]CPFPX image-derived input
function (IDIF) from dynamic PET images of mice.In this
study five mice were scanned with [18F]CPFPX for 60 min.
Arterial blood samples (n=7 per animal) were collected from
the femoral artery and corrected for metabolites. To
generate IDIFs, three different approaches were selected:
(A) volume of interest (VOI) placed over the heart (cube,
10mm); (B) VOI set over abdominal vena cava/aorta region
with a cuboid (5 × 5 × 15mm); and (C) with 1 × 1 × 1mm
voxels on 5 consecutive slices. A calculated scaling factor
(α) was used to correct for partial volume effect, the
method of obtaining the total metabolite correction of
[18F]CPFPX for IDIFs was developed. Three IDIFs were
validated by comparison with AIF. Validation included:
visual performance; computing area under the curve (AUC)
ratios (IDIF / AIF) of whole-blood curves and parent curves;
in addition, the mean distribution volume (VT) ratios (IDIF
/ AIF) of A1ARs calculated by Logan plot and two-tissue
compartment model (2TCM).Compared with the AIF, the IDIF
with VOI over heart showed the best performance among the
three IDIFs after scaling by 1.77 (α) in terms of visual
analysis, AUC ratios (IDIF / AIF, whole-blood AUC ratio 1.03
± 0.06, parent curve AUC ratio 1.01 ± 0.10) and VT ratios
(IDIF / AIF; Logan VT ratio 1.00 ± 0.17, 2TCM VT ratio 1.00
± 0.13) evaluation. The A1ARs distribution of average
parametric images was in good accordance to autoradiography
of the same mice brains.The proposed study provides evidence
that IDIF with VOI over heart can replace AIF effectively
for quantification of A1ARs by using PET and [18F]CPFPX in
mice brains.},
