Abstract
The possibility of multimodality imaging with PET/MR and the availability of ultra-high field MRI has allowed to investigate novel aspects of neuropsychiatric conditions. One of the major barriers in current studies is the lack of an instrument that allows to accurately cover the temporal aspect under the same physiological conditions. The aim of this commentary is to provide our perspective on how the integration of EEG-PET-MR could be a solution to the current challenge in molecular imaging and seems to hold great promise in future pharmacological challenging-based studies, understanding different functional states of the brain, and could furthermore aid in the diagnostic and prognostic evaluations of neurocognitive disorders.
期刊介绍:
AIMS Neuroscience is an international Open Access journal devoted to publishing peer-reviewed, high quality, original papers from all areas in the field of neuroscience. The primary focus is to provide a forum in which to expedite the speed with which theoretical neuroscience progresses toward generating testable hypotheses. In the presence of current and developing technology that offers unprecedented access to functions of the nervous system at all levels, the journal is designed to serve the role of providing the widest variety of the best theoretical views leading to suggested studies. Single blind peer review is provided for all articles and commentaries.
