In addition, the changes in the brain that occur during the life span of normal individuals are also considered because there is a different "normal" for each stage of life.doi:10.1016/j.cpet.2009.12.006Newberg, Andrew B.Alavi, Abass
This study was designed to establish age‐related variations in regional cortical glucose metabolism asymmetries in the developing human brain. FDG‐PET scans of 58 children (age: 1–18 years) were selected from a large single‐center pediatric PET database. All children had a history of ...
Objective: The aim was to investigate normal patterns of brain metabolism determined by F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG PET)/MRI during childhood and adolescence. Patients and methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out on all paediatric patients who underwent FDG PET/MRI at...
Cross-sectional PET imaging studies report that brain glucose metabolism becomes qualitatively similar to adult patterns by the end of the first year of life (Chugani, 1994; Chugani and Phelps, 1986; Chugani et al, 1987). However, overall brain metabolism rises to twice that of adult levels ...

Multiple sclerosis is associated with lower amyloid but normal tau burden on PET: Neuroimaging / Normal brain agingWhile β゛myloid and tau PET imaging are widely studied in cognitive aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD), little is known about findings in aging multiple sclerosis (MS) patients. ...
The visual analysis of amyloid PET images was conducted by an independent, board-certified specialist in nuclear medicine (VG), following the tracer-specific standardized operating procedures approved by the European Medicinal Agency. Specifically, regional positivity was assessed for each scan, specifying...
I’m grateful I need not tell himgrandmais gone. He will remember her always – of that I am certain. His memory of people is a pristine portion of his brain that operates seemingly perfectly. And it’s untarnished by grief, by the knowledge he’ll never see her, or anyone else he...
Cranial CT: Normal Findings The scan usually begins at the base of the skull and continues upward. Since the hard copies are oriented such that the sections are viewed from caudal, all structures appear as if they were left/right reversed (see p. 14). Th
