  1. 107. Clinical PET/MR of the brain: visions from the past and for the future
    Ian Law (Univ. of Copenhagen, Dept. of Clinical Medicine)

    Hybrid PET/MRI systems have been available 2011 with diseases of the brain being identified as the most obvious application in routine clinical use. It was envisioned that the combination of advanced MRI methods, such as classical and hyperpolarized spectroscopy, contrast and non-contrast based perfusion, tractography and diffusion imaging combined with PET molecular imaging would be...

    The challenge of screening and follow-up of subjects at risk of dementia is becoming of crucial importance for the sustainability of the national healthcare system. Although imaging biomarkers play an essential role in supporting the diagnosis and prognosis of dementia, several MR markers are still being evaluated in terms of technical and clinical suitability. In this context, hybrid PET/MR...

    PET/MR and SPECT/MR
    Oral

    In this study, we tested a data-driven head motion correction method on 11C-methionine brain PET images of a cohort of paediatric patients and we investigated its impact qualitatively and quantitatively. Twenty-seven paediatric patients with treated high grade glioma underwent 11C-methionine PET/MRI exam using a fully hybrid PET/MR scanner. During PET scan, MRAC and ZTE sequences were acquired...

  4. 68. [18F]FEPPA-PET/MRI Reveals an Association between Elevated Post-Acute Microglial Activity and Disrupted Microstructure in Cerebral White Matter within 6-Months Following Ischemic Stroke
    Udunna Anazodo (Lawson Imaging, Lawson Health Research Institute; Department of Medical Biophysics, Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry, Western University; Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery, McGill University)
    PET/MR and SPECT/MR
    Oral

    Cerebral white matter (WM) injury after ischemic stroke is associated with post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI). Hybrid PET/MRI can shed insight into pathophysiological mechanisms linking chronic extralesional neuroinflammation, ischemic WM injury, and PSCI. This study used hybrid PET/MRI to investigate the relationship between [18F]FEPPA standardized uptake value ratio (SUVr) measurements...
