Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major health concern in the United States and worldwide. Neuroimaging is a critical element in the clinical evaluation of TBIs, as computed tomography (CT)…
MR imaging is currently the main imaging modality used for the diagnosis and post therapeutic assessment of glioblastomas. Recently, several innovative PET radioactive tracers have been investigated for the evaluation…
Vascular dementia (VaD) is a unique form of cognitive decline caused by impairment of blood flow to the brain. Atherosclerosis is strongly associated with VaD as plaque accumulation can lead…
The process of aging in the brain is reflective of various factors including the environment, lifestyle, genetics, and management of concurrent chronic conditions. Aging in the brain leads to observable…
While MR imaging is the main imaging modality to assess brain tumors, PET imaging has a specific role. Among the many tracers that have been proposed and are still being…
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) involves a complex pathophysiology of neurodegeneration that leads to severe cognitive deficiencies. Understanding the molecular alterations that underlie this disease is fundamental to clinical management and therapeutic…
Presurgical evaluation aims to localize the seizure onset zone (SOZ) for a tailored resection. Interictal [ 18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose PET is now an established test to lateralize and/or localize the SOZ,…
MR imaging is currently the main imaging modality used for the diagnosis and post therapeutic assessment of glioblastomas. Recently, several innovative PET radioactive tracers have been investigated for the evaluation…
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a characteristically heterogeneous disorder, as multiple neurodevelopmental disorders are characterized by similar symptomology and behavior. Research has shown that individuals with ASD benefit from early…
Neuroimaging, particularly positron emission tomography (PET), plays a crucial role in diagnosing and managing brain disorders by providing insights into diverse neuropathologies such as vascular issues, infections, inflammation, degenerative diseases,…
