The gamma variate function, commonly used to analyze time-activity curves obtained in nuclear medicine flow studies, is shown to be related to the solution to the differential equation obtained from a one-dimensional convective dispersive model of blood flow.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
