  1. 26. FDG PET and MRI as biomarkers of Tau pathology in Alzheimer’s disease

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

    Author : Putu Ayuwidia Ekaputri; [2021]
    Keywords : Alzheimer’s disease; fdg pet; mri; tau pet; tau pathology;

    Abstract : Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography (FDG PET) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) are commonly used in a clinical setting as an examination in Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) patients. FDG PET is an imaging tool to evaluate hypometabolism; meanwhile, the MRI observes the brain volume. READ MORE

  3. 27. The medial temporal lobe subregional atrophy in early onset and late onset amnestic variant Alzheimer’s disease

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

    Author : Hmon Wutt; [2021]
    Keywords : Medial temporal lobe subregional atrophy; Early onset AD vs late onset AD; Amnestic variant of AD; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : Memory impairment and prominent hippocampal atrophy are the most recognisable features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). It has been known that hippocampus and surrounding medial temporal lobe (MTL) structures support memory processes. However, specific function of each MTL subfield remains to be elucidated. READ MORE

  4. 28. Prediction of hub miRNAs and their associated pathways in Alzheimer's disease with miRNA-mRNA-TF network using bioinformatic tools

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för biovetenskap

  6. 30. Prediction of Neurodegenerative Diseases using Brain Images

    University essay from Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för informationsteknologi

    Author : Abhishek Pulicherla; Aiman Mujtaba Khan; [2021]
    Keywords : Neurodegenerative diseases;

    Abstract : Advancements in Deep Neural Network Architectures have enabledit to be used in the medical imaging and diagnostics domain, in termsof assisting doctors in making diagnoses. Although Neurodegenera-tive diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease remains a diagnosis basedon clinical grounds, there has been great development and recogni-tion that Deep Neural Networks can address the complexity and vol-ume of imaging data.
