A Support Vector Machine (SVM) based approach was developed to identify a pseudo-reference region for brain PET scans with the aim of reducing interscan and intersubject variability. By training a binary linear SVM classifier with PET datasets from t...
The World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) has prohibited the use of clenbuterol (CLN) because it induces anabolic muscle growth while potentially causing adverse effects such as palpitations, anxiety, and muscle tremors. Thus, it is vital to assess meat qu...

INTRODUCTION: Amyloid-β (Aβ) plaques is a significant hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD), detectable via amyloid-PET imaging. The Fluorine-18-Fluorodeoxyglucose ([F]FDG) PET scan tracks cerebral glucose metabolism, correlated with synaptic dysfunct...
BACKGROUND: Beta amyloid in the brain, which was originally confirmed by post-mortem examinations, can now be confirmed in living patients using amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) tracers, and the accuracy of diagnosis can be improved by beta...

The plasma/serum concentration of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] is a diagnostic index for vitamin D deficiency/insufficiency, which is associated with a wide range of diseases, such as rickets, cancer and diabetes. We have reported that the derivatiz...
PURPOSE: Positron emission tomography (PET) imaging with various tracers is increasingly used in Alzheimer's disease (AD) studies. However, access to PET scans using new or less-available tracers with sophisticated synthesis and short half-life isoto...

PURPOSE: Standardized uptake value ratio (SUVr) used to quantify amyloid-β burden from amyloid-PET scans can be biased by variations in the tracer's nonspecific (NS) binding caused by the presence of cerebrovascular disease (CeVD). In this work, we p...
