1. Transaxial sections of contrast-enhanced MRI showing the body and tail of the pancreas (A and B).
Transaxial sections of contrast-enhanced MRI showing the body and tail of the pancreas (A and B). Fusion images between MRI and SPECT for drawing the pancreatic and bone regions of interest (ROI) for the calculation of the T:B (C and D). Transaxial sections of SPECT corresponding to the MRI slide in which the pancreatic and bone ROI are shown (irregular ROI for pancreas as target [T] and circle ROI for bone as background [B]) for calculation of the T:B. The images show an example of a T2D patient with a T:B of 3.42 (A, C, and E) and an example of a T2D patient with LADA with a T:B of 5.33 (B, D, and F).
