概括
这项研究表明,使用18F-florbetaben进行全身PET扫描,可以使用从大动脉获得的图像导出输入函数进行大脑粉样蛋白沉积的非侵入性量化. 这种方法提供了可靠的结果,与传统方法相美.
科学领域:
- 核医学是一种核医学.
- 神经成像是一种神经成像.
- 生物物理学的生物物理.
背景情况:
- 使用18F-florbetaben对大脑粉样沉积的定量PET成像是至关重要的,但通常需要侵入性动脉血液采样.
- 全身PET扫描仪可实现动态全身数据采集,促进非侵入性方法.
研究的目的:
- 用动力建模与18F-florbetaben PET和来自大动脉的图像衍生输入函数 (IDIFs) 来量化大脑粉样蛋白负担.
- 评估老年人队伍中非侵入性粉样蛋白量化的可行性和可靠性.
主要方法:
- 动态18F-florbetabenPET成像是在EXPLORER全身PET扫描仪上进行的.

Positron Emission Tomography
4.2K
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical imaging technique involving radiopharmaceuticals — substances that emit short-lived radiation. Although the first PET scanner was introduced in 1961, it took 15 more years before radiopharmaceuticals were combined with the technique and revolutionized its potential.
One of the main requirements of a PET scan is a positron-emitting radioisotope, which is produced in a cyclotron and then attached to a substance used by the part of the body...
