Applications of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) in Neurology [PDF]

Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery & Psychiatry, 2004
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a powerful imaging technique which enables in vivo examination of brain functions. It allows non-invasive quantification of cerebral blood flow, metabolism, and receptor binding. In the past PET has been employed mainly in the research setting due to the relatively high costs and complexity of the support ...
