Bayesian latent time joint mixed-effects model of progression in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative. [PDF]
IntroductionWe characterize long-term disease dynamics from cognitively healthy to dementia using data from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative.MethodsWe apply a latent time joint mixed-effects model to 16 cognitive, functional, biomarker ...

Staging β-Amyloid Pathology With Amyloid Positron Emission Tomography.
Importance Different brain regions appear to be involved during β-amyloid (Aβ) accumulation in Alzheimer disease (AD), but a longitudinally valid system to track Aβ stages in vivo using positron emission tomography (PET) is lacking.

Quantum Tomography twenty years later [PDF]
A sample of some relevant developments that have taken place during the last twenty years in classical and quantum tomography are displayed. We will present a general conceptual framework that provides a simple unifying mathematical picture for all of them and, as an effective use of it, three subjects have been chosen that offer a wide panorama of the
