Recently, Jamadar et al. (2021, Metabolic and hemodynamic resting-state connectivity of the human brain: a high-temporal resolution simultaneous BOLD-fMRI and FDG-fPET multimodality study. Cereb Cortex. 31(6), 2855–2867) compared the patterns of brain connectivity or covariance as obtained from 3 neuroimaging measures: 1) functional connectivity estimated from temporal correlations in the functional magnetic resonance imaging blood oxygen level-dependent signal, metabolic connectivity estimated, 2) from temporal correlations in 16-s frames of dynamic [18F]-fluorodeoxyglucose-positron emission tomography (FDG-PET), which they designate as functional FDG-PET (fPET), and 3) from intersubject correlations in static FDG-PET images (sPET). Here, we discuss a number of fundamental issues raised by the Jamadar study. These include the choice of terminology, the interpretation of cross-modal findings, the issue of group- to single-subject level inferences, and the meaning of metabolic connectivity as a biomarker. We applaud the methodological approach taken by the authors, but wish to present an alternative perspective on their findings. In particular, we argue that sPET and fPET can both provide valuable information about brain connectivity. Certainly, resolving this conundrum calls for further experimental and theoretical efforts to advance the developing framework of PET-based brain connectivity indices.

静态与功能性 PET:理解代谢连接

最近,Jamadar 等人。(2021 年,人脑的代谢和血流动力学静息状态连接:一项高时间分辨率同时 BOLD-fMRI 和 FDG-fPET 多模态研究。Cereb Cortex. 31(6), 2855-2867)比较了大脑连接的模式或从 3 种神经成像测量中获得的协方差:1) 从功能磁共振成像血氧水平依赖信号中的时间相关性估计的功能连接性,估计的代谢连接性,2) 从动态 [18F]-氟脱氧葡萄糖的 16 秒帧中的时间相关性估计-正电子发射断层扫描 (FDG-PET),他们将其指定为功能性 FDG-PET (fPET),以及 3) 来自静态 FDG-PET 图像 (sPET) 中的主体间相关性。在这里,我们讨论了 Jamadar 研究提出的一些基本问题。这些包括术语的选择、跨模式研究结果的解释、组到单个受试者水平推论的问题以及代谢连通性作为生物标志物的意义。我们赞赏作者采用的方法论方法,但希望对他们的发现提出另一种观点。特别是,我们认为 sPET 和 fPET 都可以提供有关大脑连接的有价值信息。当然,解决这个难题需要进一步的实验和理论努力,以推进基于 PET 的大脑连接指数的开发框架。但希望对他们的发现提出另一种观点。特别是,我们认为 sPET 和 fPET 都可以提供有关大脑连接的有价值信息。当然,解决这个难题需要进一步的实验和理论努力,以推进基于 PET 的大脑连接指数的开发框架。但希望对他们的发现提出另一种观点。特别是,我们认为 sPET 和 fPET 都可以提供有关大脑连接的有价值信息。当然,解决这个难题需要进一步的实验和理论努力,以推进基于 PET 的大脑连接指数的开发框架。
