  1. CenTauR: Toward a universal scale and masks for standardizing tau imaging studies

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Alzheimer's & dementia (Amsterdam, Netherlands) 2023-07-07 Brain scans and imaging

    We constructed several tau-specific cortical masks for the AD continuum and a universal standard scale designed to capture the location and degree of abnormality that can be applied across tracers and across centers.

  2. Preclinical Evaluation of 18F-JNJ64349311, a Novel PET Tracer for Tau Imaging

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 38 out of 100. Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine 2017-02-23 Brain scans and imaging

    Mouse biodistribution studies showed moderate initial brain uptake and rapid brain washout.

  3. Tau imaging in neurodegenerative diseases

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 55 out of 100. European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging 2015-11-16 Brain scans and imaging

    Aggregated tau protein is a major neuropathological substrate central to the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration and chronic traumatic encephalopathy.
