  3. 2. Development, validation and application of advanced neuroimaging analysis tools for in vivo neuroreceptor studies

    Nyckelord :PET; neuroreceptor; multi-receptor analysis; kinetic analysis; parametric imaging; wavelet filtering; artificial neural network; unsupervised cluster analysis;

    Sammanfattning : Positron emission tomography (PET) is an imaging technology, which can be used to study neuroreceptors in the human brain in vivo. The technique estimates the regional binding of radiolabelled ligands to neuroreceptors and the data are commonly displayed as images showing the distribution of radioactivity in the brain volume.

  4. 3. Development of radioligands for the serotonergic neurotransmission system for use in positron emission tomography

    Författare :Johan Sandell; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :PET; Radioligand; Brain; 5-HT1A receptor; serotonin transporter;

    Sammanfattning : The serotonergic system is implicated in several neuropsychiatric disorders, such as depression, anxiety and schizophrenia. Several hypotheses on the pathophysiology of these disorders are based on the pharmacology of serotonergic drugs. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are widely used for the treatment of depression and anxiety. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Multimethodological imaging studies of pathophysiological mechanisms in human epilepsy

    Författare :Carolina Ciumas; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Although the pathophysiological mechanisms of human epilepsy are extensively investigated, many questions remain unanswered. One is whether idiopathic generalized epilepsies (IGE) have anatomical substrates. Another is if the functional integrity of the limbic networks in mesial temporal lobe epilepsy (MTLE) is impaired.
