Florbetaben-PET finds more beta-amyloid plaques
By Wayne Forrest
New research indicates that PET imaging with the radiotracer florbetaben can detect a form of beta-amyloid plaque that develops early in the brain. The findings could possibly lead to the earlier detection of Alzheimer's disease, as well as new clinical indications for florbetaben.

Analysis finds variance in uptake of amyloid PET tracers
By Wayne Forrest
PET scans can detect varying levels of amyloid in the brain that change with age and the presence of a genotype linked to Alzheimer's disease, according to a Dutch study in the May Journal of the American Medical Association. The findings may enable clinicians to better tailor which patients receive the scans.
