MImaps can have different units, e.g. unitless, ml/ml or pmol/ml. See
[Innis et al. 2007](https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1038/sj.jcbfm.9600493) for unit descriptions.
MImaps are derivatives of molecular imaging (PET or SPECT) raw data. They can
either be unitless, e.g. a BP_ND or SUVR, or have the units ml/cm^3 for a V_T or pmol/ml
for average density maps (see [Beliveau et al. 2017](https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5214625/)).
