Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Yeona Kang"
- Yeona Kang's research primarily focuses on the applications of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging in understanding and quantifying opioid receptors, traumatic brain injury effects, and the biological mechanisms behind conditions like abdominal aortic aneurysms and multiple sclerosis.
- Recent studies include investigations into the physiological impacts of the opioid radiotracer [C]carfentanil, brain fluid clearance post-traumatic brain injury, and the potential of chemokine receptor 2 as a biomarker for abdominal aortic aneurysms.
- Kang's work integrates advanced imaging techniques such as PET and MRI to explore neuroinflammation and receptor expression in various neurological disorders, aiming to develop reliable biomarkers and therapeutic insights for conditions like Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis.
