  1. Evaluation of Dosimetry, Quantitative Methods, and Test-Retest Variability of 18F-PI-2620 PET for the Assessment of Tau Deposits in the Human Brain

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine 2019-11-11 Brain scans and imaging

    A strong correlation was found across different kinetic models ( R 2 > 0.97) and between DVR(2TC) and SUVR between 30 and 90 min, with an R 2 of more than 0.95.

  2. Test-retest characteristic of [18F]MK-6240 quantitative outcomes in cognitively normal adults and subjects with Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 41 out of 100. Journal of cerebral blood flow and metabolism : official journal of the International Society of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism 2019-11-11 Brain scans and imaging

    [ 18 F]MK-6240 is a selective, high-affinity PET radiotracer for imaging neurofibrillary tangles (NFT) in Alzheimer's disease (AD).

  3. Test-retest repeatability of [18F]Flortaucipir PET in Alzheimer's disease and cognitively normal individuals

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Journal of cerebral blood flow and metabolism : official journal of the International Society of Cerebral Blood Flow and Metabolism 2019-10-01 Brain scans and imaging

    The aim of this study was to investigate the test-retest (TRT) repeatability of various parametric quantification methods for [ 18 F]Flortaucipir positron emission tomography (PET).
