- 参与者接受了90分钟的[11C]SMW139PET扫描,并连续取血样.
- [11C]SMW139的量化使用了2个组织区模型;母体的分布体积 (V_Tp) 是主要参数.
主要成果:
- 与HC相比,PD患者在膜和整个皮质中表现出明显更高的[11C]SMW139 V_Tp.
- 探索性分析显示,在PD患者的轨道前皮层中,V_Tp较高.
- 在PD患者中,V_Tp与运动症状严重程度或疾病持续时间之间没有发现显著的关联.
结论:
- [11C]SMW139 PET在PD患者的皮质和脑皮层中显示了增加的P2X7受体结合.

Radiological Investigation III: Pulmonary Angiogram and PET Scan
732
Radiological investigations are paramount in the diagnosis and management of various pulmonary diseases. Two essential investigations are the Pulmonary Angiogram and the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Scan.
Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
