Functional PET imaging showing neuroinflammation of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome/myalgic encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME)
Researchers at the RIKEN Center for Life Science Technologies, in collaboration with Osaka City University and Kansai University of Welfare Sciences, have used functional PET imaging to show that levels of neuroinflammation, or inflammation of the nervous system, are higher in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome than in healthy people.
