Summary: The development of the \([^{18}\text{F}]\)Fluorodeoxyglucose \(([^{18} \text{F]FDG)}\) method and of high temporal and spatial resolution Positron Emission Tomography (PET), together with various models of \([^{18}\text{F]FDG}\) kinetics, has made possible to obtain quantitative measurement of regional cerebral glucose utilization in vivo. The aim of this work was to evaluate, from PET data obtained in the human heart and brain, the performance of the most important mathematical models of \([^{18}\text{F]FDG}\) kinetics proposed in the literature.
