Research Focus
Dr. Amirhossein Goldan's lab focuses on developing advanced imaging technologies for early diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. They work on a portable, high-resolution PET scanner that improves the detection of tau protein deposits in the brain, which are indicative of Alzheimer's. This innovative approach aims to enhance accessibility to brain imaging and improve the accuracy of Alzheimer's diagnosis.
