INTRODUCTION: Tau positron emission tomography (PET) is a reliable neuroimaging technique for assessing regional load of tau pathology in the brain, but its routine clinical use is limited by cost and accessibility barriers.
PET imaging has become a valuable tool for assessing atherosclerosis by targeting key processes such as inflammation and microcalcification. Among available tracers, 18F-sodium fluoride has demonstrated superior performance compared to 18F-fluorodeox...
Detection of Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is critical for successful diagnosis and treatment, involving the common practice of screening for Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). However, the progressive nature of AD makes it challenging to identify its causa...
Amyloid- positron emission tomography can reflect the Amyloid- protein deposition in the brain and thus serves as one of the golden standards for Alzheimer's disease (AD) diagnosis. However, its practical cost and high radioactivity hinder its applic...
Low-dose PET offers a valuable means of minimizing radiation exposure in PET imaging. However, the prevalent practice of employing additional CT scans for generating attenuation maps ( -map) for PET attenuation correction significantly elevates radia...
