PET in the Evaluation of Alzheimer"s Disease and Related Disorders

This practical guide contains all the science and clinical information needed to help the reader make informed decisions about the applications of brain PET to improve the care of patients with symptoms of Alzheimer’s disease and related disorders. Beginning with an introduction to goals and limitations of the clinical evaluation of dementia, Dr. Dan Silverman and his distinguished group of contributors cover the role of functional imaging, clinical interpretation of brain FDG-PET scans, FDG-PET in the evaluation of early dementia, microstructural imaging of neurodegenerative changes, amyloid imaging, imaging non-neurodegenerative causes of cognitive impairment, tools for assisting PET scan interpretation in the clinical setting, and PET evaluation of central motor disorders. There is also a complete collection of clinical cases that practitioners are likely to encounter in daily practice. Enhanced with numerous PET brain scans, this book fills a rapidly growing need in the medical imaging field.

The Shulgin Index, Volume1: Psychedelic Phenethylamines and Related Compounds (Repost)

The Shulgin Index, Volume1: Psychedelic Phenethylamines and Related Compounds By Alexander T. Shulgin, Tania Manning, Paul F. Daley
2011 | 811 Pages | ISBN: 096300963X | scanned PDF | 304 MB

None of the anecdotal accounts that you find in TiHKAL and PiHKAL will be found in this volume. This is pure information about the pharmacology of the compounds, their legal status, their CAS numbers and their synthesis. This is hard core chemist/biochemist materials, and it’s nice to see Shulgin return to his roots as a scientist. Additionally included in the book is reference spectra for almost every compound found in PiHKAL. The book is extraordinarily well referenced and contains 2000+ references. Over 1300 compounds are covered, with about 130 of the most active and studied compounds from PiHKAL investigated in depth. Highly recommended for any researcher.
