Down Syndrome (DS) or trisomy 21 is the most common genetic cause of mild to moderate intellectual disability in the world. The life expectancy of DS patients has increased in the last decades and, therefore, the incidence of dementia, especially Alzheimer's Disease (AD) increases in this population, making aging a new and important area of study in DS. Molecular neuroimaging allows in vi…
Down syndrome (DS) is a genetic syndrome caused by trisomy 21. The aging process in this syndrome is accelerated and the incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is higher and earlier than in the population without the syndrome. Since AD is precocious in DS, it is important to study early interventions that can prevent or delay the symptomatic manifestations of dementia, as well as technolog…
People with Down syndrome (DS) have chromosome 21 trisomy. This trisomy is considered to be the main reason for the high rate of onset of Alzheimer's disease in people with DS, and processes such as neuroinflammation and beta-amyloid plaque deposition are processes that happen during aging. It is possible to evaluate neuroinflammation by molecular imaging in vivo, using the positron emiss…
Down syndrome (DS) is a genetic disorder, of great prevalence in the population, characterized by trisomy 21. Its characteristics include intellectual disability, cardiovascular anomalies, immune system alterations and the early development of Alzheimer´s disease (AD). In the context, the use of a noninvasive imaging tool, such as positron emission tomography (PET) can be of great importa…
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system, with multifactorial origin and main responsible for nontraumatic neurological dysfunctions in young adults. Central Nervous System cells and peripheral immune system mediate the inflammation and demyelination process of neural axons, which can lead to neuronal and axonal degeneration…

The exploration of molecular neuroimaging obtained by positron emission tomography (PET), has been a very useful technique in neuroscience research. The pharmacokinetics study is carried out to quantify the density of the receptor or molecular transporter. Studies about the evaluation of the level of arterial blood radioactivity when PET imaging is obtained has been described in the liter…
