Sixteen patients were studied by multitracer positron emission tomography (PET) within 6–48
(mean of 23) h of onset of a hemispheric ischemic stroke and again 13–25 (mean of 15.6) …

Objective The ECAT EXACT HR is a newly designed CTI–Siemens PET scanner with high
spatial resolution. Its physical performance with respect to resolution, count rate efficiency, …

The ECAT HRRT is a three-dimensional (3-D) only dedicated brain tomograph employing
the new scintillator lutetium-oxy-orthosilicate (LSO) and using depth of interaction (DOI) …

Because of the high glucose metabolism in normal brain tissue 18 F-FDG is not the ideal
tracer for the detection of gliomas. Methyl- 11 C-l-methionine ( 11 C-MET) is better suited for …

The microPET R4 scanner is a dedicated positron emission tomograph (PET) for studies of
rodents. A number of scanner parameters such as spatial resolution, sensitivity, scatter, and …

Neuroimaging studies in right-handed patients with left hemisphere brain lesions have
demonstrated a shift of language activity from left to right inferior frontal gyrus (IFG). This shift may …

Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN‐DBS) has become an effective
treatment option in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent animal studies showed an …

Background and Purpose—Central benzodiazepine receptor ligands, such as [ 11 C]flumazenil
(FMZ), are markers of neuronal integrity and therefore might be useful in the …

Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between the in vivo derived
kinetic parameters of 3′-deoxy-3′- 18 F-fluorothymidine ( 18 F-FLT) and the proliferation …

Examination of the individual functional anatomy of language is of particular interest in clinical
neurology to explain the variability of aphasic symptoms after focal lesions and to avoid …
