  • GAMMA PROBE DETECTION OF AMYLOID PLAQUE USING RADIOLABELED A-BETA BINDING COMPOUNDS
    Publication number: 20100331676
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of detecting ?-amyloid peptide aggregates in the brain of an individual and kits thereto. The method includes administering to an individual an effective amount of an A?-binding radiopharmaceutical, waiting a period of time, measuring a gamma radiation count over an external area of the head corresponding to the cortex of the individual using a radiation detection device, and comparing the gamma radiation count with a control gamma radiation count.
