Journal ArticleDOI

Diffusion tensor imaging: Concepts and applications

TL;DR: The concepts behind diffusion tensor imaging are reviewed and potential applications, including fiber tracking in the brain, which, in combination with functional MRI, might open a window on the important issue of connectivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Left prefrontal glucose hypometabolism in the depressed state: a confirmation.

TL;DR: The resting-state cerebral metabolic rates for glucose of severely depressed patients were compared, before and after treatment with tricyclic antidepressants, to those of 10 control subjects of similar age by means of positron emission tomography and the fluorodeoxyglucose method.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutation in the SYNJ1 gene associated with autosomal recessive, early-onset Parkinsonism.

TL;DR: The identification of a SYNJ1 homozygous mutation segregating with disease in an Italian consanguineous family with Parkinsonism, dystonia, and cognitive deterioration is reported, delineating a novel form of human Mendelian Parkinsonism and providing further evidence for abnormal synaptic vesicle recycling as a central theme in the pathogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Obsessive‐compulsive disorder: a clinical, neuropsychological and positron emission tomography study

TL;DR: Results suggest, in OCS, a modification of the general activating systems of cortical function and a relationship between the lateral prefrontal rCMRglu decrease and a selective attention deficit.
Journal ArticleDOI

Thalamic microglial activation in ischemic stroke detected in vivo by PET and [11C]PK11195

TL;DR: A persistent increase in [11C]PK11195 binding suggests active, long-term thalamic microstructural changes after corticothalamic connection damage, and activation of microglia in degenerating projection areas remote from the primary lesion.
