Imaging brain activation using FDG-fPET
- Study HIC#:2000035067
- Last Updated:11/06/2025
- The purpose of this study is to is to study the activation in your brain using FDG functional PET imaging (FDG-fPET). The radiotracer 18F-FDG is an analog of glucose and can be used to measure glucose uptake in regions of the brain at rest and during stimulation. FDG is an FDA approved Positron Emission Tomography (PET) tracer that is routinely used in clinical imaging to measure glucose uptake. We will be using an imaging technique called PET (Positron Emission Tomography), which can track the movement of the radiotracer in the body.
