Difference between Positron emission tomography and Working memory

Positron emission tomography vs. Working memory

Positron-emission tomography (PET) is a nuclear medicine functional imaging technique that is used to observe metabolic processes in the body as an aid to the diagnosis of disease. Working memory is a cognitive system with a limited capacity that is responsible for temporarily holding information available for processing.

Similarities between Positron emission tomography and Working memory

Positron emission tomography and Working memory have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Alzheimer's disease, Dopamine, Dopamine receptor, Functional magnetic resonance imaging, Neuroimaging.

Alzheimer's disease

Alzheimer's disease (AD), also referred to simply as Alzheimer's, is a chronic neurodegenerative disease that usually starts slowly and worsens over time.
