A Brigham and Women’s Hospital study of 30 people found that, in patients with MS, advanced brain imaging could identify hidden inflammation not picked up on traditional MRIs ...
PET is a scan that uses a tracer to show tumor activity. Research published in 2017 indicates that lymphoma cells are particularly responsive to a tracer called fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG).
When compared to the TSPO-specific tracer ¹⁸F-D2-LW223, ¹⁸F-PDE-1905 demonstrated superior image quality and greater brain distribution, underscoring its promise for imaging neuroinflammation.
Turning brain patterns into clinical insight The tool analyzes a fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) scan, which shows how the brain uses glucose for energy.
