Feasibility of Imaging Myelin Lesions in Multiple Sclerosis by Maria I. Zavodszky, John F. Graf, Cristina A. Tan Hehir

“…The imaging agent evaluated for this purpose is a molecule that binds strongly and specifically to myelin basic protein. Physiology-based pharmacokinetic modeling combined with PET image simulation applied to a brain model was used to examine whether such an agent would allow the differentiation of artificial lesions 4–10 mm in diameter from the surrounding normal-looking white and gray matter. …”
