Detection and quantification of Amyloids using PET in transgenic animal models
The talk will cover technical considerations of small animal PET imaging, including limited resolution of small animal PET imaging systems, high throughput imaging with multi mouse holders, partial volume effects and quantification strategies. Furthermore, successful studies and recent advances in beta-amyloid small animal PET imaging will be highlighted and usefulness of PET in basic science will be discussed. Finally, small animal tau PET imaging will be discussed.
