Development of in vivo diagnosis of pathologic protein deposits in the brains of prion disease patients

Translational medicine is a term describing systematic efforts for adequate testing and transfer of basic research findings into clinical practice. The paper outlines a series of studies aimed at evaluating a diagnostic potential of positron emission tomography with a radioisotope probe [18F]FDDNP f...
