disorders of consciousness remains challenging. These days, The Coma Recovery Scale …

Objective To evaluate the changes of brain metabolism with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG)
PET/CT in patients with disorders of consciousness (DOC). Methods This retrospective …

Ensuring a robust and reliable evaluation of coma deepness and prognostication of
neurological outcome is challenging. We propose to develop PET neuroimaging as a new …

Rapid advancements in the critical care management of acute brain injuries have facilitated
the survival of numerous patients who may have otherwise succumbed to their injuries. The …

Background Bedside clinical examinations can have high rates of misdiagnosis of
unresponsive wakefulness syndrome (vegetative state) or minimally conscious state. The …
