Derivation of gamma variate indicator dilution function from simple convective dispersion model of blood flow.
The gamma variate function, commonly used to analyze time-activity curves obtained in nuclear medicine flow studies, is shown to be related to the solution to the differential equation obtained from a one-dimensional convective dispersive model of blood flow.
