Statistical parametric mapping of FDG-PET in Alzheimer disease

The goal of our studies provides the possibility to early diagnose the Alzheimer's disease. This purpose is achieved combining 3 Tesla Magnetic Resonance Imaging with the Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and the Computer Tomography. In this work we illustrate the first step of this program showing the very preliminary results of the PET functional analysis based on the Statistical Parametric Mapping.
