Abstract: 18F-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) plays an important role in the diagnosis, evaluation and treatment of childhood epilepsy. The selection of appropriate acquisition and reconstruction parameters, however, can be challenging with the introduction of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00259-022-05752-6
Abstract: A unique advantage of the brain positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is the ability to image different biological processes with different radiotracers. However, the diversity of the brain PET image patterns also makes their spatial… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00330-019-06229-1
Abstract: To obtain attenuation-corrected PET images directly from non-attenuation-corrected images using a convolutional encoder-decoder network. Brain PET images from 129 patients were evaluated. The network was designed to map non-attenuation-corrected (NAC) images to pixel-wise continuously valued… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0169928
Abstract: Background Although cognitive impairment is not a consistent feature of multiple system atrophy (MSA), increasing evidence suggests that cognitive impairment is common in MSA with predominant parkinsonism (MSA-P). It is assumed that the cognitive impairment… read more here.
