Imaging the Vulnerable Plaque

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2011
Cardiovascular diseases are still the primary causes of mortality in the United States and in Western Europe. Arterial thrombosis is triggered by a ruptured atherosclerotic plaque and precipitates an acute vascular event, which is responsible for the high mortality rate.

Relationship of cognitive decline with glucocerebrosidase activity and amyloid‐beta 42 in DLB and PD

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease (PD) share clinical, pathological, and genetic risk factors, including GBA1 and APOEε4 mutations. Biomarkers associated with the pathways of these mutations, such as glucocerebrosidase enzyme (GCase) activity and amyloid‐beta 42 (Aβ42) levels, may hold potential as predictive ...

Label free visualization of amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease with polarization-sensitive photoacoustic Mueller matrix tomography [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
The formation of amyloid plaques in the cortical and hippocampal brain regions caused by abnormal deposition of extracellular amyloid \b{eta}-protein (A\b{eta}) is a characteristic pathological hallmark of early Alzheimer's disease (AD), while label-free graphic rendering of diseased amyloid plaques in vivo is still a highly challenging task.

Diagnostic Challenge in Frontal Variant Alzheimer's Disease With Low Amyloid‐β PET Retention

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diagnosing frontal variant Alzheimer's disease (fvAD) is difficult and could be even more difficult when amyloid‐beta (Aβ) PET retention is low. A 63‐year‐old woman presenting with a 3‐year history of apathy and memory impairment showed executive dysfunction, memory impairment, and severe bilateral frontotemporal atrophy on MRI.
