In the past two decades, structural and functional neuroimaging findings have greatly modified
longstanding notions regarding the pathophysiology of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)…

Primary Central Nervous System Lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare neoplasm that can involve
brain, eye, leptomeninges, and rarely spinal cord. PCNSL lesions most typically enhance …

Aim The diagnosis, severity and extent of a sterile inflammation or a septic infection could
be challenging since there is not one single test able to achieve an accurate diagnosis. The …

Objective: We investigated a large sample of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS)
at rest in order to assess the value of 18 F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose ( 18 F-FDG) PET as …

Purpose Recently, a GGGGCC hexanucleotide repeat expansion in the C9ORF72 gene,
located on chromosome 9p21 has been demonstrated to be the commonest cause of familial …

Objective: To identify the metabolic signature of the various levels of cognitive deficits in
amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) using 18 F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose-PET ( 18 F-FDG-PET)…

Purpose To identify the neurobiological traits of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and to
elucidate functional differences between ALS of spinal and bulbar onset. We hypothesized …

OBJECTIVE. The purpose of this study was to compare the diagnostic performance of 18 F-FDG
PET/CT and conventional imaging for staging and follow-up of pediatric osteosarcoma …

Purpose 18 F-Dopa positron emission tomography (PET)/CT has proved a valuable tool for
the assessment of neuroendocrine tumours. So far no data are available on 18 F-dopa …
