Dr. Caius Radu and collegues have employed metabolic imaging using FDG-PET, to follow the  progression and treatment of autoimmune disease in a preclinical model. Using a mouse model of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), they were able to monitor immune cell infiltration in the spinal cord. Their work appeared Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS 104:1937, 2007), and was also highlighted in the Biomedicine Select column in the March issue of Cell.
