It has been proposed that major depression is associated with a dysfunction of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) system. This study was planned to investigate whether there are any alterations in GABAergic activities depressive patients and, if are, electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) effect on these changes.Twenty-five depressed inpatients who responded course ECT and 23 healthy subjects were included study. Serum GABA levels measured 2 days before 10 minutes after first 3 last ECT, baclofen...

To assess the additional contribution of combined imaging approach with Ga-DOTA-TATE and fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) on basis volumetric parameters in neuroendocrine tumors (NETs).Forty-one patients NET (19 women, 22 men; age range: 30-79 years; mean age: 56.7±12.3 years) underwent Ga DOTA-TATE F-FDG PET/computed tomography (CT) imaging. Within drawn regions interest, addition to evaluating maximum standardized uptake values (SUVmax SUVmean), metabolic tumor volume (MTV) total...
