The imaging studies are expected to be the ones needed to get the drug approved.
He calls on Merck and Schering to fund more molecular biology, chemistry and imaging studies of Zetia.
Imaging studies have begun to reveal CBT can render long-term physiological changes in the brain, just as antidepressants can.
Imaging studies, body activity, sleep and other indicators reveal more and more clues.
Another set of imaging studies, conducted at the Cleveland Clinic, provides more clues.
Imaging studies show that the best readers have the most brain activity in the rear, instant-word-forming area when they read.
Almost 1, 200 patients have enrolled in imaging studies to test the drug, conducted by the Cleveland Clinic's Steven Nissen .
Over the years, survival rates have improved as a result of more accurate imaging studies and better anaesthetic and operative techniques.
Dr. Goadsby and colleagues at UCSF are conducting more imaging studies to determine what brain activity occurs during the premonitory phase.
For some people, imaging studies, such as CT scans, done for another reason, may catch a pheochromocytoma before it produces symptoms.
Brain-imaging studies have already shown that, in boys with autism, the amygdala develops early and stops growing around the age of eight.
Dr Morgan points to clinical research by his group, and recent brain-imaging studies by Rainer Thomasius at University Hospital Hamburg-Eppendorf in Germany.
Dyslexia can't be cured, but imaging studies show that some remedial programs that help children learn sequential sound-letter relationships can rewire those circuits.
Pfizer's almost completed imaging studies will aim to see if the combination of Lipitor and torcetrapib can reduce the amount of plaque in the arteries.
John Kastelein of the University of the Netherlands, who conducted another set of torcetrapib imaging studies, says he also found evidence of the same problem.
Although the imaging studies cannot determine cause and effect, it is possible that the structural changes may have come first, predisposing certain patients to depression.
The first of these, a set of imaging studies some analysts hope will be enough to get the drug approved, will be available next year.
And he says imaging studies like ENHANCE have not been proven to be any more meaningful that reductions in LDL or C-reactive protein (CRP), a marker of inflammation.
Imaging studies on depressed humans show shrinkage in their hippocampus, a brain region involved in learning, memory and emotion that is also a region where much neurogenesis occurs.
Some brain-imaging studies suggest that people who regularly use the Internet become more skillful in tracking down data and some video games appear to help players improve visual acuity.
Brain-imaging studies have also documented impairments in offenders.
The campaign seeks to re-educate Americans to the view that addiction is a brain disease and presents convincing evidence that drug and alcohol abuse causes neurological changes that can be seen in brain imaging studies.
FORBES: Lindsay Lohan To Enter 90-Day "Lock Down" Rehab - Will It Work?
Using brain-imaging studies, Carlson and her colleagues have shown that after just a few months, people who volunteer show beneficial changes in their brains similar to those that other research teams have seen with exercise.
And although imaging studies show that middle-aged people may use different brain regions to do the same old tasks, cognitive tests show that apart from brute speed, the brain's abilities are not diminished in middle age.
Brain imaging studies show that investors as a whole get more and more used to big returns, and thus take bigger and bigger risks in a bull market--and then the bubble pops and stockholders start selling like mad.
After analyzing data from 47 independent brain imaging studies, researchers found that the rule-breaking behavior common to people with antisocial, violent, and psychopathic tendencies may result partly from damage to the neural circuitry in the brain that underlies moral decision-making.
FORBES: Man Allegedly Strikes Toddler on Airplane: What Was He Thinking?
Functional-imaging studies of the brain have revealed another tantalizing clue: During the aura phase, a wave of electrical activity sweeps over the outer, furrowed layer of the brain known as the cortex, at a pace of 2 to 3 millimeters per minute.
John Kastelein, a cardiologist at the University of Amsterdam who is conducting a separate set of imaging studies of arteries in the neck, says that if torcetrapib removes plaque from the arteries over the course of two years in three different studies, it may still present a very compelling clinical benefit for patients.
Three different studies using imaging techniques to measure how much plaque built up in patients' arteries will be presented at the meeting.
Earlier studies used fMRI imaging to see which parts of the brain are active when we generate ideas.
