This participant-level meta-analysis estimates the prevalence of PET scan–measured amyloid in Alzheimer disease participants and its associations with
The PET image is generated from a radiotracer binding to amyloid brain plaque. A cortical profile is generated from the PET image. The cortical profile describes cortical tracer uptake to varying projection depths inside the cortex of the brain. The PET image is quantitatively assessed using the ...
We also examined early regional Aβ accumulation in the presumably earliest Aβ accumulators; those with normal CSF Aβ42 and normal Aβ PET at baseline who converted to abnormal CSF Aβ42 levels at follow-up but still had a normal Aβ levels identified by PET scan (CSF−/PET to CSF+...

After the induction of anesthesia, the animals were positioned with their heads in the center of the field of view and were fixed in the PET scanner in the prone head first position (HFP). At the beginning of the PET scanning procedure, computed tomography (CT) scans were acquired for ...
The post-PET period of 90 days was selected to allow sufficient time to implement care recommendations after the PET scan but to provide a short enough time window to minimize the influence of other events (unrelated to PET) on patient management. Patient deaths that occurred between registration...
Ninety minutes after injecting 300 MBq ± 20% 18F-florbetaben, a 20-min emission PET scan in a dynamic mode (consisting of 4 × 5 min frames) was performed. Using the ordered-subsets expectation maximization algorithm (iteration = 4 and subset = 20), 3-dimensional PET ...
The 3-slice CNN model with a short-time scan of at least 2 minutes achieved comparable, quantitative prediction of full-time 18F-FBB PET/CT images, with adequate to excellent image quality. Conclusions: The 3-slice CNN model with a residual learning framework is promising for the prediction ...
Post mortem histochemical analyses confirm the Aβ-PET data To confirm and extend the in vivo results, methoxy-X04 staining of fibrillar Aβ was performed after the final Aβ-PET scan to investi- gate whether chronic RO5506284 treatment has an impact on Molecular Psychiatry (2015), 1179 –...
Over two-thirds (68.1%) had an elevated amyloid-β PET scan. Mean COC for all patients was 0.154 (SD = 0.102; range = 0–0.73) prior to the scan and 0.158 (SD = 0.105; range = 0–1.0) in the year following the scan. Following the scan, the mean COC index score increased (95...
