The impact of ZTE-based MR attenuation correction compared to CT-AC in 18F-FBPA PET before boron neutron capture therapy

open access: yesScientific Reports
Tumor-to-normal ratio (T/N) measurement of 18F-FBPA is crucial for patient eligibility to receive boron neutron capture therapy. This study aims to compare the difference in standard uptake value ratios on brain tumors and normal brains using PET/MR ZTE ...

Resolution improvement of brain PET images using prior information from MRI: clinical application on refractory epilepsy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
An important counterpart of clinical Positron Emission Tomography (PET) for early diagnosis of neurological diseases is its low resolution. This is particularly important when evaluating diseases related to small hypometabolisms such as epilepsy.

Workflow Considerations in PET/MR Imaging [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nuclear Medicine, 2014
Many groups attempt to optimize imaging protocols on PET/MR imaging systems. Although research protocols may take as long as 60-90 min, much more efficient clinical workflows are needed to achieve cost-effective examination times of less than 1 h.

The Case of a 28‐Year‐Old Woman With Medically Refractory Focal Epilepsy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We present the case of a 28‐year‐old right‐handed woman with medically refractory focal epilepsy. Her seizure semiology and electroencephalography (EEG) indicated a seizure onset zone in the right central‐parietal area. However, both MRI and PET scans were unremarkable, showing no focal lesions or areas of altered metabolism.

An Out‐of‐Place Etiology: Recognizing FMR1 Premutation in the Memory Clinic

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The FMR1 gene premutation (55–200 CGG repeats) is usually associated with a wide range of symptoms and phenotypes within the Fragile X‐tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS), but may also manifest as predominant or isolated cognitive decline. We describe three male patients referred for progressive cognitive impairment and behavioral changes. Standard

Dose Optimization in TOF-PET/MR Compared to TOF-PET/CT.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
PurposeTo evaluate the possible activity reduction in FDG-imaging in a Time-of-Flight (TOF) PET/MR, based on cross-evaluation of patient-based NECR (noise equivalent count rate) measurements in PET/CT, cross referencing with phantom-based NECR curves as ...

Unsupervised learning for cross-domain medical image synthesis using deformation invariant cycle consistency networks

open access: yes, 2018
Recently, the cycle-consistent generative adversarial networks (CycleGAN) has been widely used for synthesis of multi-domain medical images. The domain-specific nonlinear deformations captured by CycleGAN make the synthesized images difficult to be used ...

Neuroinflammation in GAD65 Antibody‐Associated Epilepsy Measured Using [18F]DPA‐714 PET/MRI

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing for initiating immunotherapy in patients with glutamic acid decarboxylase 65 (GAD65) antibody‐associated epilepsy is a challenge. We used the translocator protein radioligand [18F]DPA‐714 and PET to evaluate brain microglial activation.

Feasibility and Tolerability of Performing Portable MRI for Neurological Disorders in an Outpatient Neurology Clinic: A Prospective Cohort

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Accessing brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be challenging, especially for underserved patients, which may lead to disparities in neurological diagnosis. Method This mixed‐methods study enrolled adults with one of four neurological disorders: mild cognitive impairment or dementia of the Alzheimer type, multiple sclerosis ...
