In a group of animals in which tiny implanted windows
allowed direct imaging of brain tissue, the progression of A-beta plaque deposition was fastest in animals receiving APOE4 and slowest, sometimes even appearing to regress, in mice injected with APOE2.

A magnetic oxide material incorporated into the nanoparticles could
allow the assemblies to be
directed to a tumor site by an external magnet, and could also support diagnostic
imaging.
It could
allow the vast body of research into brain
imaging to have a
direct outlet that benefits patients.
Direct positron
imaging is a nuclear medicine technique that
allows researchers to gain physiological information from radiolabeled
imaging agents that bind to targets in the body, which are then imaged with a specialized detector.
When excited by light, they produce an ultrasound signal,
allowing direct 3 - D
imaging of hypoxic areas.
In combinations with other methods of planet detection,
direct imaging and spectroscopy will
allow us to eventually: 1) fully map out the architecture of typical planetary systems and 2) study the atmospheric properties of exoplanets in depth.
The GPI
imaging furthermore clearly resolve the disk gap,
allowing us to measure its width (~ 5 AU) and depth (~ 50 %) and thereby facilitating
direct comparison with detailed numerical simulations of planets forming in circumstellar disks.
