Clinical trials of the PET amyloid imaging agent (18)F-flutemetamol have used visual assessment to classify scans as negative or positive for brain amyloid. However, quantification provides additional information about regional and global tracer uptake may utility image over time across different centers. Using postmortem neuritic plaque density data a truth standard derive standardized value ratio (SUVR) threshold, we assessed fully automated method comparing quantitative scan...
In vivo imaging of fibrillar β-amyloid deposits may assist clinical diagnosis Alzheimer's disease (AD), aid treatment selection for patients, trials therapeutic drugs through subject selection, and be used as an outcome measure. A recent phase III trial [18F]flutemetamol positron emission tomography (PET) in 106 end-of-life subjects demonstrated the ability to identify by comparing PET post-mortem histopathology. Post-mortem analyses a broad continuous spectrum pathology AD other dementing...

Abstract Introduction Performance of the amyloid tracer [ 18 F]flutemetamol was evaluated against three pathology standard truth (SoT) measures including neuritic plaques (CERAD “original” and “modified” component 2012 NIA‐AA guidelines). Methods After imaging, 106 end‐of‐life patients who died underwent postmortem brain examination for plaque load. Blinded positron emission tomography scan interpretations by five independent electronically trained readers were compared with measures....
Patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) may progress to clinical Alzheimer disease (AD), remain stable, or revert normal. Earlier progression AD among patients who were β-amyloid positive vs those negative has been previously observed. Current research now accepts that a combination of biomarkers could provide greater refinement in the assessment risk for progression.To evaluate ability flutemetamol F 18 and other assess from aMCI probable AD.In this multicenter cohort study,...

Identification of risk factors is important for preventing radiocontrast-induced nephropathy (RCIN). Contrast dose and renal function have been shown in most but not all studies to be RCIN. We are investigating the ratio contrast creatinine clearance (D/CrCL) as a indicator. Theory shows that D/CrCL equals area under concentration-time curve (AUC), an accepted measure systemic exposure. This study investigated correlation between calculated experimentally measured AUC agent...
