Tau Imaging

Tau imaging is a medical imaging technique, primarily used in research and diagnostics, to visualize the distribution of tau proteins in the brain. Tau proteins are associated with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s, where they can accumulate abnormally. By using specialized imaging agents and technologies, tau imaging helps researchers and doctors observe these proteins in living patients. This can enhance our understanding of diseases' progression, aid in early diagnosis, and guide treatment decisions. Overall, tau imaging is a valuable tool for studying brain health and developing interventions for neurodegenerative conditions.
