Our review summarizes the diagnostic accuracy of plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) phosphorylated tau 217 (p-tau217) in detecting amyloid and tau pathology on positron emission tomography (PET). We systematically reviewed studies that reported the diagnostic accuracy of plasma and CSF p-tau217, searching MEDLINE/PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science through August 2024. The accuracy of p-tau217 in predicting amyloid and tau pathology on PET was evaluated in 30 studies.

Introduction: Premenopausal bilateral oophorectomy (PBO) before the age of 46 years is associated with an increased risk of dementia. We investigated the long-term effects of PBO performed before age 50 years on amyloid beta (Aβ), tau, and neurodegeneration imaging biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Methods: Mayo Clinic Cohort Study of Oophorectomy and Aging-2 participants were divided into early PBO (< 46 years; n = 61), and late PBO (46-49 years; n = 51) groups and were compared to referent women who did not undergo PBO (n = 119).

Background And Aims: The positron emission tomography (PET) tracer 18F-florbetaben is a promising diagnostic tool for light-chain cardiac amyloidosis (AL-CA). A greater cardiac uptake might signal more amyloid burden and a worse outcome. We aimed to assess the prognostic significance of 18F-florbetaben uptake in AL-CA.

The overall goal of the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) is to optimize and validate biomarkers for clinical trials while sharing all data and biofluid samples with the global scientific community. ADNI has been instrumental in standardizing and validating amyloid beta (Aβ) and tau positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. ADNI data were used for the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of the Fujirebio and Roche Elecsys cerebrospinal fluid diagnostic tests.

Fibroblast activation protein (FAP), which is overexpressed in cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), represents a promising target for cancer diagnosis and therapy. Hypoxia is a common feature of solid tumors. A bivalent agent, DOTA-NI-FAPI-04 (), was developed by incorporating hypoxia-sensitive nitroimidazole (NI) into the FAP-targeting agent FAPI-04.
