![Image: PET scans highlight the loss of dopamine storage capacity in Parkinson’s disease. In the scan of a disease-free brain, made with [18F]-FDOPA PET (left image), the red and yellow areas show the dopamine concentration in a normal putamen, a part of the mid-brain. Compared with that scan, a similar scan of a Parkinson’s patient (right image) shows a marked dopamine deficiency in the putamen (Photo courtesy of the Feinstein Institute’s Center for Neurosciences).](https://globetechcdn.com.axis1.net/mobile_hospimedica/images/stories/articles/article_images/2014-07-31/JQR-574.jpg "Image: PET scans highlight the loss of dopamine storage capacity in Parkinson’s disease.

Identifying Brain Networks Using Metabolic Brain Imaging-Based Mapping Strategy
A new image-based strategy has been used to identify and gauge placebo effects in randomized clinical trials for brain disorders. The researchers employed a network mapping technique to identify specific brain circuits underlying the response to sham surgery in Parkinson’s disease. More...31 Jul 2014
