METHOD, APPARATUS, COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM AND USE FOR PHARMACOKINETIC MODELING
First Claim
1. A method for pharmacokinetic modeling of an image dataset comprising a set of volumes of interest having a plurality of volumes, each volume comprising at least one voxel having at least one related data value, said method comprisingassigning an initial set of parameter values to initial parameters describing a first type of voxel within said image dataset,calculating a mean voxel data value for each volume in an initial set of volumes of interest comprised in said set of volumes of interest,reconstructing parameters for each volume in said initial set of volumes of interest, based on said mean voxel data value and said initial set of parameter values, resulting in a subsequent set of parameters, andassigning said subsequent set of parameters as initial parameters to a subsequent set of volumes of interest comprised in said image dataset.

Abstract
Methods and systems for interworking in messaging systems are described. An event store can be accessible by different dispatchers associated with different message servers. The dispatchers may be co-located with the event store or non co-located with the event store.

1. A method for pharmacokinetic modeling of an image dataset comprising a set of volumes of interest having a plurality of volumes, each volume comprising at least one voxel having at least one related data value, said method comprising
assigning an initial set of parameter values to initial parameters describing a first type of voxel within said image dataset, calculating a mean voxel data value for each volume in an initial set of volumes of interest comprised in said set of volumes of interest, reconstructing parameters for each volume in said initial set of volumes of interest, based on said mean voxel data value and said initial set of parameter values, resulting in a subsequent set of parameters, and assigning said subsequent set of parameters as initial parameters to a subsequent set of volumes of interest comprised in said image dataset.
