NEUROIMAGING METHODS IN EVALUATION OF DEMENTIA
This Special Session of the annual METMBS '2000 meeting will bring
together
researchers from diverse neuroimaging backgrounds to present data, and
stimulate discussion, on the current application and potential of
techniques
such as positron emission tomography, single photon emission computed
tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging, to improve the clinical
management of people beginning to experience symptoms of early dementia.
