Predicting standardized uptake value of brown adipose tissue from CT scans using convolutional neural networks [PDF]
The standard method for identifying active Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) is [18F]-Fluorodeoxyglucose ([18F]-FDG) PET/CT imaging, which is costly and exposes patients to radiation, making it impractical for population studies.

Brain amyloid in preclinical Alzheimer\u27s disease is associated with increased driving risk [PDF]
INTRODUCTION: Postmortem studies suggest that fibrillar brain amyloid places people at higher risk for hazardous driving in the preclinical stage of Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS: We administered driving questionnaires to 104 older drivers (19 AD, 24
