Brain glial activation in fibromyalgia - a multi-site positron emission tomography investigation
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a poorly understood chronic condition characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, fatigue, and cognitive difficulties. While mounting evidence suggests a role for neuroinflammation, no study has directly provided evidence of ...

Imaging Microglial/Macrophage Activation in Spinal Cords of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis Rats by Positron Emission Tomography Using the Mitochondrial 18kDa Translocator Protein Radioligand [18F]DPA-714 [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease of the CNS. Activated microglia/macrophages play a key role in the immunopathogenesis of MS and its corresponding animal models, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE).

Diagnostic role and prognostic impact of positron emission tomography/computed tomography in patients treated for uterine corpus cancer [PDF]
Introduction/Objective. The goal of our research was to evaluate diagnostic and prognostic role of positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET-CT) in patients previously treated for uterine cancer and compare it to conventional imaging methods (

Amyloid tracers detect multple binding sites in Alzheimer´s disease brain tissue. [PDF]
Imaging fibrillar amyloid-β deposition in the human brain in vivo by positron emission tomography has improved our understanding of the time course of amyloid-β pathology in Alzheimer’s disease. The most widely used amyloid-β imaging tracer so far is 11C-
