The PETITION (PET for InTensive Care units and Innovative protON therapy) collaboration is currently developing two compact brain Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanners with a focus on new clinical applications. The first device (ICU device) is a mobile scanner intended to scan deeply sedated, critically-ill patients with sepsis directly in the Intensive Care Units (ICU). The second...

Neurodegenerative dementias are a group of slowly progressing neurological disorders with the most common being dementia due to Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). Despite different main pathology and symptoms, there can be a substantial overlap in concomitant pathology and clinical presentation and misdiagnosis is not uncommon even at specialized dementia clinics....

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative brain disorder and AD-related metabolic pattern (ADRP) is its biomarker that has shown promising results in several studies. One of the obstacles towards successful translation to the clinic is limited evidence on its diagnostic performance with incoherent imaging data - for example different image resolution and identification...

Introduction: Multivariate metabolic brain patterns obtained by SSM/PCA analysis of [18F]FDG-PET scans represent discrete functional brain networks. They were identified and validated in most neurodegenerative dementias and are routinely used in clinical practice. However, the internal structure of these networks remains unknown. In this study, we explored metabolic connectivity with graph...

The PET-CT technology and its continuous developments are widely spread all over the world, however the distribution of the cyclotrons and the availability and affordability of its tracers is not well organized among the developing countries and varies greatly from country to another and consequently will affect the number of installed PET-CT scanners. According to the IAEA database the number...
