PXMOD Implementation

Acquisition and Data Requirements

Image Data

Any dynamic volume data. Note that the time information is relevant for the results.

Model Preprocessing

Number of subdivisions

Maximal number of interval subdivisions in boxplot; 1/s=5 means 1/(25) intervals

Maximal curve value

The global maximal value. It is corrected upwards if the actual curve maximum exceeds this value. Note that the total area is relevant for the box subdivisions. To cover the same area for all TACs a common maximum value is required.

Map Parameters

PXMOD Fractal Model Parameters

Db

Box-counting dimension calculated with boxplot method.

We would like to thank Prof. Ludwig G. Strauss (l.strauss@dkfz-heidelberg.de) for the model implementation and for making it publicly available.
