Official study title

Monoamine Oxidase B PET/CT in Various MAO-B-Related Disease

Original description

To evaluate the potential usefulness of 18F-FPyCO/SMBT-1 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of primary and metastatic lesions in various MAO-B-related disease patients.

Further description from the registry

Subjects with various Tau-related disease patients underwent18F-FPyCO/SMBT-1 PET/CT either for an initial assessment or for recurrence detection. Lesions uptake was quantified by the maximum standard uptake value (SUVmax). The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy of 18F-FPyCO/SMBT-1 PET/CT were calculated.
