Happy segmenting!

Hello Bluesky! Welcome to the official Penn ADRD Trajectories, Copathology, and Heterogeneity (PATCH) Lab account for the labs of Drs. Paul Yushkevich, Sandhitsu Das, and David Wolk at the University of Pennsylvania. Stay tuned for updates about our presentations at AAIC25!

New integration with nnInteractive (github.com/MIC-DKFZ/nnI...) in ITK-SNAP 4.4.0-alpha2 (itksnap.org) lets you turn scribbles into 3D segmentations in seconds. All thanks to an amazing new model from Fabian Isensee and colleagues at @helmholtzimaging.bsky.social!

🚨Paper alert
Very happy to share our last work on #IntrinsicCapacity (IC) in dementia with Lewy bodies #DLB (n=154), compared AD (n=644)
👉DLB patients showed lower IC in all domains (locomotion, vitality, psychology, audition), requiring personalized interventions !

SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS!
THIS ONE’S FOR YOU PHILLY!

The mimicker of Alzheimer’s disease.

Progressive amnestic syndrome with:
1) Hippocampal atrophy
2) Older age ~ 80+
3) Negative AD biomarkers
• Caution with amyloid positivity common with aging
• Tau PET ideal but not covered
• FDG-PET medial > lateral Temporal hypometabolism = supportive

Clinical criteria for limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE)

i think so! specific patterns on FDG PET and mismatch help predict a-synuclein and TDP-43 copathology in mixed AD+

Thank you!

Hi Monica, I’m a neuroimaging scientist and resident. Could you add me to the science feed? duongmdphd@bsky.social

Thank you for the highlight and example case! With #LewyBody disease, posterior hypometabolism is often more prominent than atrophy. This could be related to changes in neuronal integrity of posterior networks by a-synuclein.
