Identifying Mild Alzheimer's Disease With First 30-Min 11C-PiB PET Scan

Abstract

Amyloid quantification index combines early-phase kinetic information and a certain degree of β-amyloid deposition, and can provide a better differentiating performance using the data from the first 30-min dynamic scan. Moreover, it was shown that clinically indistinguishable AD cases regarding PiB retention potentially can be correctly identified.
