Sequential brain SPECT imaging has been used to assess the cerebral perfusion reserve(CPR) in cerebrovascular diseases(UD). We have realized parametric images of CPR using deadtime correction of gamma camera and normalized difference ratio. For the anatomical localization of CPR, the parametric images were registered to the contours of the cerebral regions using optimal threshold method, which showed to reflect the CPR more reliably and distinctively than the simple subtraction. We conclude that the quantitative estimation of CPR using normalized difference ratio image could be useflll for the diagnosis and prognostic assessment of CVD.
