Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Network patterns will be extracted from the FDG PET data images. MRI examinations are used for to specify a precise degree of atrophy (VBM analysis) and tissue degeneration (DTI analysis). These PET and MRI output data will be used to define a specific disease related pattern for IPD and MSA.	—
