simcmdk - tpcclib 0.8.0 © 2023 by Turku PET Centre
Simulation of PET tissue time-radioactivity concentration curve (TAC)
based on two-tissue compartment model. Vascular volume is not considered.
dC1(t)/dt = K1*Ca(t) - (k2+k3)*C1(t) + k2*C2(t)
dC2(t)/dt = k3*C1(t) - k4*C2(t)
Ct(t) = C1(t) + C2(t)
Usage: simcmdk [options] inputfile simfile
Options:
-fa | -fe
If input file contains frame start and end times, simulated TAC is
either saved with frame start and end times and frame concentration
average (option -fa, default), or with start/end times and concentrations
at those times (option -fe).
-sub
Save simulated C1 and C2 curves; by default only their sum is saved.
-h, --help
Display usage information on standard output and exit.
-v, --version
Display version and compile information on standard output and exit.
-d[n], --debug[=n], --verbose[=n]
Set the level (n) of debugging messages and listings.
-q, --quiet
Suppress displaying normal results on standard output.
-s, --silent
Suppress displaying anything except errors.
Model parameters are specified as additional columns of the input file.
The first one or two columns must contain the times or frame start and end
times, and after that the input function concentrations.
