Open AccessVisualization of ischemic stroke-related changes on 18F-THK-5351 positron emission tomography
The 18F-THK-5351 radiotracer has been used to detect the in vivo tau protein distribution in patients with tauopathy, such as Alzheimer’s disease and corticobasal syndrome. In addition, 18F-THK-5351 can also moni...

Open AccessBeta-amyloid deposition in patients with major depressive disorder with differing levels of treatment resistance: a pilot study
Lack of treatment response in patients with late-life depression is common. The role of brain beta-amyloid (Aβ) deposition in treatment outcome in subjects with late-life depression remains unclear. The presen...

Imaging characteristic of dual-phase 18F-florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) PET for the concomitant detection of perfusion deficits and beta-amyloid deposition in Alzheimer’s disease and mild cognitive impairment
We investigated dual-phase 18F-florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) PET imaging for the concomitant detection of brain perfusion deficits and beta-amyloid deposition in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and amnestic m...

Beta-amyloid deposition and cognitive function in patients with major depressive disorder with different subtypes of mild cognitive impairment: 18F-florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) PET study
The objective of this study was to evaluate the amyloid burden, as assessed by 18F-florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) positron emission tomography PET, in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) with different subt...

Increased brain amyloid deposition in patients with a lifetime history of major depression: evidenced on 18F-florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) positron emission tomography
The literature suggests that a history of depression is associated with an increased risk of develo** Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The aim of this study was to examine brain amyloid accumulation in patients wit...

Perfusion-like template and standardized normalization-based brain image analysis using 18F-florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) PET
Amyloid positron emission tomography (PET) is an important noninvasive method for detecting amyloid burden in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) patients. As amyloid PET images have limited anatomical information, magne...

Correlation of early-phase 18F-florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) PET images to FDG images: preliminary studies
18F-Florbetapir (AV-45/Amyvid) is a novel positron emission tomography (PET) tracer for imaging plaque pathology in Alzheimer’s disease (AD), while PET images of fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) for ce...

Well-Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma with Concomitant Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis Present with Less Aggressive Clinical Stage and Low Recurrence
Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) and follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) are the most common differentiated thyroid cancers. Previous studies report that Hashimoto’s thyroiditis (HT) concomitant with PTC is un...

Noninvasive monitoring of tumor growth in a rat glioma model: comparison between neurological assessment and animal imaging
Malignant gliomas are the most common primary tumors that arise from glial cells and are characterized by extensive invasiveness and rapid progression. Limitation of the current therapeutic regimen for maligna...

Are dual-phase 18F-FDG PET scans necessary in nasopharyngeal carcinoma to assess the primary tumour and loco-regional nodes?
This prospective study aimed to investigate the efficacy of dual-phase positron emission tomography (PET) in evaluating the loco-regional status of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC).
