Young-adult normal FDG-PET database

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to construct a young-adult normative FDG database that could be used with Cortex-ID and/or MIMneuro, enabling a quantifiable regional cortex map by using a single patient’s FDG scan. Here, we will conduct a preliminary study (n=10) to test the feasibility of the protocol and workflow.
