Flumazenil PET in Head Injury Abstract Objective [11C]flumazenil ([11C]FMZ) positron emission tomography (PET) can be used as a measure of neuronal loss The purpose of this study was to validate reference tissue kinetic modelling of [11C]FMZ PET within a group of patients with head injury Methods Following earlier studies, the pons was used as the reference region PET scans were performed on 16 controls and 11 patients at least six months following injury, each of whom also had arterial blood sampling to provide whole blood and metabolite-corrected plasma input functions Regional non-displaceable binding potentials (BPND) were calculated from five reference tissue models and compared to BPND from arterial input models For the patients the regions included a peri-lesional region-of-interest (ROI) Results Total distribution volume (VT) of the pons was not significantly different between control and patient groups (P=0.24) BPND from all the reference tissue approaches correlated well with BPND from the plasma input models for both controls (r2: 0.98-1.00; P
