Abstract |
MRI-phase information is known as a tool to detect amyloid plaque (AP) in the brain. Our collaborative researches revealed that the phase information of AP linked to MMSE. The derivation of AP information via phase, however, needed non-linear gaussian fits, and its detection power depended upon individual performance of operators. In this seminar, we will suggest a simplified and objective method to detect AP, and talk about a future direction of our study.
