Abstract
[18F]FDG PET is currently the most commonly used functional imaging method for the in vivo investigation of regional brain metabolism in clinical practice. PET/CT scanners are widely available in Europe, in the US, in Australia, and most of the rest of the world [1] and the clinical role of [18F]FDG brain PET can be regarded as established for a number of diagnostic challenges in Neurology and Psychiatry [2]. In particular, [18F]FDG PET plays a major role in the early and differential diagnosis of neurodegenerative dementias and Parkinsonian syndromes by showing disease-specific patterns of hypometabolism [3].| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
