Very nice summary again! However, FDG is used in PET scans, which is a different technique than MRI. In PET, radioactive tracers are used to visualize processes - in this case glucose. MRI does not use irradiation and is therefore more non-invasive. So the authors used PET and not MRI.

Women are under-represented at senior levels in #academia globally, & across all #science 🧪 disciplines, as shown by these "scissor-shaped curves" ✂️

So how can we ever achieve #gender #equality?

I know I am biased, I read about Mats ( #Ibelin) years ago and I was touched.
I thought the movie might be hard to watch, but was actually uplifting...
I recomend it not just to people interested in #disability and #videogames, but also about social lives online

On this dreary Friday afternoon it is good to think about exciting things that are coming, like the next "Imaging in Neruomuscular Disease Conference"! Happening in a little less then in a year in beautiful Berlin. For everyone interested in #MRI, #Imaging and #neuromusculardisease, save the date!
