- Dissociation of Structural and Functional Connectivity and Metabolism in the Neocortex of Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy: A Simultaneous PET/MRI Multimodal Study
This study uses simultaneous PET/MRI, which integrates structural connectivity, functional connectivity, and glucose metabolism in IGE to elucidate abnormalities of the neocortex and to analyze the correlations between these abnormalities and clinical presentations. The results show dissociated patterns of abnormalities: structural connectivity abnormalities in the limbic and visual networks, functional connectivity deficits in the default mode network, and metabolic reductions in the frontoparietal and somatomotor networks.
- Diagnostic Value of PET Tracers in Differentiating Glioma Tumor Recurrence from Treatment-Related Changes: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
This review of the literature found that amino acid-based tracers (such as 11C-MET and 18F-FDOPA) had the highest diagnostic value in identifying true progression of glioma and treatment-related change.
