Clinical trials: Neuroinflammation
Depressive Disorder
Cerebral Neuroinflammation During Major Depressive Episode
the investigators make the following assumptions: 1) neuroinflammation in MDD can be measured by the [18 F ] DPA- 714 ; 2) it is accompanied by anatomical and functional changes in the frontal subcortical loops, strongly involved…

Obstructive Sleep Apnoea, Inflammation
Investigating the Neuropathology of Obstructive Sleep Apnoea
Our multi-disciplinary research group works closely with people who have obstructive sleep apnoea. This is a life-long illness that causes breathing to stop during sleep, which leads to low-oxygen in the blood.

SARS CoV-2 Post-Acute Sequelae
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Imaging of Neuroinflammation in Patients With Neurological Dysfunction After Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV 2) Infection
This clinical imaging study will use the small molecule translocator protein (TSPO) ligand, Fluorodeoxyglucose(18F)-labeled DPA-714, to visualize and quantify neuroinflammation in individuals with post-acute sequelae of…
