- Diagnostic Test: Multimodal Neuroimaging
- Registration Number
- NCT04164680
- Lead Sponsor
- Hangzhou Normal University
- Brief Summary
Recently introduced hybrid PET/MR scanners provide the opportunity to measure simultaneously, and in direct spatial correspondence, both metabolic demand and functional activity of the brain, hence capturing complementary information on the brain's physiological state. Here we exploited PET/MR simultaneous imaging to explore the relationship between the metabolic information provided by resting-state fluorodeoxyglucose-PET (FDG-PET) and fMRI (rs-fMRI) in patients with disorders of consciousness.
