The correlation between the mean dose and SUVmean relative difference was significant in five assessed regions: R hippocampus (r (22) = 0.45, p = 0.03), L occipital lobe (r (23) = 0.52, p = 0.01), L parietal lobe (r (23) = 0.66, p = 0.001), frontal lobe (r (23) = 0.42, p = 0.05), and R occipital lobe (r (23) = 0.55, p = 0.01), and one assessed region, the cerebellum (r (23) = 0.37, p = 0.08), was close to being statistically significant ( Table 3a ).
