Selective Disruption of Inhibitory Synapses Leading to Neuronal Hyperexcitability at an Early Stage of Tau Pathogenesis in a Mouse Model.

TL;DR: The findings indicate that tau-induced disruption of the inhibitory synapse may be a critical trigger of progressive neurodegeneration, resulting in massive neuronal loss, and PET assessments of inhibitory versus excitatory synapses potentially offer in vivo indices for hyperexcitability and excitotoxicity early in the etiologic pathway of neurodegnerative tauopathies.
Journal ArticleDOI

First prototyping of a dedicated PET system with the hemisphere detector arrangement.

TL;DR: Novel geometries of a hemisphere detector arrangement for high-sensitivity brain imaging, in which an add-on detector at the chin position or neck position helps in sensitivity uniformity improvement are proposed, showed to have high potential for realizing high-Sensitivity, high-resolution, and low-cost brain PET imaging.
