Amyloid Imaging With Carbon 11–Labeled Pittsburgh Compound B for Traumatic Brain Injury

Abstract

[11C]PiB shows increased binding following TBI. The specificity of this binding is supported by neocortical [3H]PiB binding in regions of amyloid deposition in the postmortem tissue of patients with TBI. [11C]PiB PET could be valuable in imaging amyloid deposition following TBI.
