Neuroimaging Core

项目描述/摘要-神经成像核心 Neuroimaging Core的主要目标是为诊断提供成像生物标志物数据。 AD和其他痴呆的分类和分期，用于ADRC的研究项目和临床试验 参与者，通过马约诊所罗切斯特的协调多模态神经成像程序 (MCR)和马约诊所佛罗里达（MCF）研究中心。来自MCF的一组非洲裔美国人参与者将 招募，以提高种族多样性的多模态神经影像学计划在ADRC。 Neuroimaging Core的目标包括： 1)建立和维护协调的MRI、β-淀粉样蛋白、tau蛋白和FDG PET和DaTScan 马约诊所ADRC的SPECT成像程序，并进行标准化质量控制， 图像处理和数据分析程序的ADRC队列，包括非洲裔美国人 MCF队列; 2)支持成像研究，并为研究项目和临床提供成像生物标志物数据 国家阿尔茨海默氏症协调中心（NACC），同时保护患者 分享高分辨率图像时的保密性; 3)教育研究界，培训，支持和提高下一个职业生涯 在老化和痴呆神经影像生物标志物领域的一代调查。 神经影像学核心将与临床核心和外展和教育核心合作， 招募具有临床特征的非裔美国参与者进行成像研究，并 神经病理学核心是尸检确认成像结果，数据管理核心是 与研究界和研究教育机构共享成像生物标志物数据 初级教员培训部分。预计神经影像学核心将影响ADRC研究 操作和国家阿尔茨海默氏症协调中心（NACC）作为先进的成像生物标志物数据 resource.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION/ABSTRACT – NEUROIMAGING CORE The primary goal of the Neuroimaging Core is to provide imaging biomarker data for diagnostic classification and staging of AD and other dementias, for research projects and clinical trials on ADRC participants, through a harmonized multimodality neuroimaging program at the Mayo Clinic Rochester (MCR) and Mayo Clinic Florida (MCF) sites. A cohort of African American participants from the MCF will be recruited in order to enhance the racial diversity of the multimodality neuroimaging program in the ADRC. The aims of the Neuroimaging Core include: 1) Establishing and maintaining a harmonized MRI, β-amyloid, tau, and FDG PET and DaTScan SPECT imaging program for the Mayo Clinic ADRC, and operating a standardized quality control, image processing and data analysis program for the ADRC cohorts including the African American Cohort in MCF; 2) Support imaging studies and supply imaging biomarker data to the research projects and clinical trials, and the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (NACC), while protecting patient confidentiality when sharing high-resolution images; 3) Educating the research community, training, supporting, and enhancing the careers of the next generation of investigators in the aging and dementia neuroimaging biomarkers field. Neuroimaging Core will collaborate with the Clinical Core and the Outreach and Education Core on recruitment of clinically characterized African American participants to imaging studies, with the Neuropathology Core on autopsy confirmation of imaging findings, with the Data Management Core on sharing of the imaging biomarker data with the research community, and with the Research Education Component on training junior faculty. It is expected that the Neuroimaging Core will impact ADRC research operations and National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center (NACC) as an advanced imaging biomarker data resource.
