Genome-Wide Imaging Study Identifies New Gene Associated with Alzheimer’s Plaques
Researchers combined genetic data with neuroimaging in order to identify genes associated with amyloid plaque deposits in Alzheimer's disease patients. The study is believed to be the first genome-wide association study of plaque deposits using a specialized PET scan tracer that binds to amyloid.... Read More...
