Novel PET Radiotracer Offers Possible ‘Smell Test’ for Dementia
Olfactory health ā how well we are able to smell ā is a reliable marker of the health of the brain, but the āsmell identification testsā commonly used in studies of olfactory health do not offer a complete picture of what is happening. Now, using a novel PET radiotracer called Neuroflux, a team o...
Crowds Cure Cancer at RSNA 2017
