This auxiliary model simply divides the tissue TAC at each frame mid-time by the interpolated plasma activity at the same time and displays it as a curve called Tissue/Input curve Ratio.
Under equilibrium conditions this ratio is equal to the total distribution volume of tracer in tissue. Therefore, the plot of the Tissue/Input curve Ratio against time is a quick means to check whether the system has equilibrated (plot becomes constant) or not.
