Chao K, Bosch W, Mutic S, Lewis J, Dehdashti F, Mintun M, et al.
Int J Radiat Oncol Biol Phys . 2001 Mar; 49(4):1171-82. PMID: 11240261
Purpose: Locoregional tumor control for locally advanced cancers with radiation therapy has been unsatisfactory. This is in part associated with the phenomenon of tumor hypoxia. Assessing hypoxia in human tumors...

J Neuropsychiatry Clin Neurosci . 1999 May; 11(2):222-33. PMID: 10333993
Individuals infected with HIV are at risk to develop cognitive impairment during the course of their disease. Although many patients develop an HIV-associated dementia, others may develop the less severe...

Ricci P, Zelkowicz B, Nebes R, Meltzer C, Mintun M, Becker J
Neuroimage . 1999 Jan; 9(1):88-96. PMID: 9918730
In an effort to examine the functional neuroanatomy of semantic memory, we studied the relative cerebral blood flow of eight healthy young subjects using 15O-water positron emission tomography (PET). Relative...

Meltzer C, Smith G, Price J, Reynolds 3rd C, Mathis C, Greer P, et al.
Brain Res . 1998 Nov; 813(1):167-71. PMID: 9824691
The serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmitter system, which has a widespread distribution in the central nervous system, has been implicated in regulating mood and many human behaviors. There is evidence from postmortem...

Jennings J, Muldoon M, Ryan C, Mintun M, Meltzer C, Townsend D, et al.
Hypertension . 1998 Jun; 31(6):1216-22. PMID: 9622132
We asked whether the altered cerebral vasculature associated with essential hypertension might dampen or redirect the regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) response to cognitive work. Relative rCBF was assessed with...

Nofzinger E, Mintun M, Price J, Meltzer C, Townsend D, Buysse D, et al.
Brain Res Brain Res Protoc . 1998 May; 2(3):191-8. PMID: 9507123
Although sleep is characterized by relative behavioral inactivity, cortical activity is known to cycle in well-defined periods across this state. Cognitive function during sleep has been difficult to define, although...

Zelkowicz B, Herbster A, Nebes R, Mintun M, Becker J
J Int Neuropsychol Soc . 1998 Apr; 4(2):160-6. PMID: 9529825
The purpose of this study was to examine regional cerebral blood flow using positron emission tomography (PET) during the performance of tasks related to visual confrontation naming. Ten healthy, young...

Brain Res . 1998 Jan; 770(1-2):192-201. PMID: 9372219
Rapid eye movement (REM) sleep is a behavioral state characterized by cerebral cortical activation with dreaming as an associated behavior. The brainstem mechanisms involved in the generation of REM sleep...

Science . 1997 May; 276(5316):1272-5. PMID: 9157889
Brain regions responsive to novelty, without awareness, were mapped in humans by positron emission tomography. Participants performed a simple reaction-time task in which all stimuli were equally likely but, unknown...
