One aspect of the present invention relates to compounds, compositions and methods for diagnosis and/or treatment of a subject suffering from an amyloidosis-associated pathological condition. In certain embodiments, the imaging and/or therapeutic agents of the instant invention may be administered to a subject for identification and/or treatment of amyloid deposits. A specific imaging method detects amyloid deposits by administering the imaging agent to the subject and detecting the spatial distribution of the agent. Differential accumulation of the agent is indicative of AD or an amyloidosis-associated pathological condition and can be monitored by using a PET or SPECT camera.
本发明的一个方面涉及化合物、组合物和方法,用于诊断和/或治疗患有淀粉样蛋白病相关病理状况的受试者。在某些实施例中,本发明的成像和/或治疗剂可以被用于识别和/或治疗淀粉样沉积物。一种特定的成像方法通过向受试者注射成像剂并检测剂的空间分布来检测淀粉样沉积物。剂的差异积累表明AD或淀粉样蛋白病相关病理状况,并可以通过使用PET或
SPECT相机进行监测。
