Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Dopamine

Dean F. Wong mostly deals with Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Dopamine, Caudate nucleus and Dopamine receptor. His Internal medicine study frequently draws parallels with other fields, such as Psychosis. His Endocrinology study incorporates themes from Human brain and Radioligand.

Dopamine is a primary field of his research addressed under Neuroscience. His Caudate nucleus research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Serotonin transporter and McN5652. His Dopamine receptor study deals with Haloperidol intersecting with Biochemistry.

His most cited work include:

  • Consensus nomenclature for in vivo imaging of reversibly binding radioligands (1571 citations)
  • Positron emission tomography reveals elevated D2 dopamine receptors in drug-naive schizophrenics (840 citations)
  • Effects of age on dopamine and serotonin receptors measured by positron tomography in the living human brain (637 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Dean F. Wong spends much of his time researching Internal medicine, Endocrinology, Dopamine, Neuroscience and Positron emission tomography. His research investigates the link between Internal medicine and topics such as Human brain that cross with problems in Receptor. His Endocrinology study combines topics in areas such as Psychosis and Radioligand.

His Dopamine study is mostly concerned with Raclopride, Amphetamine, Dopamine receptor, Dopamine receptor D2 and Dopaminergic. His studies deal with areas such as Ventral striatum and Pharmacology as well as Raclopride. His study in Neuroscience focuses on Neuroimaging in particular.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Internal medicine (35.28%)
  • Endocrinology (25.26%)
  • Dopamine (20.88%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Internal medicine (35.28%)
  • Amyloid (7.72%)
  • Disease (5.43%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His primary areas of investigation include Internal medicine, Amyloid, Disease, Positron emission tomography and Dementia. His Internal medicine research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Endocrinology, Standardized uptake value, Oncology and Cardiology. Dean F. Wong usually deals with Endocrinology and limits it to topics linked to Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 and Receptor expression and Glutamatergic.

As a part of the same scientific family, he mostly works in the field of Amyloid, focusing on Cognitive decline and, on occasion, Atrophy. The study incorporates disciplines such as Longitudinal study and Cognition in addition to Disease. His research investigates the connection with Positron emission tomography and areas like Receptor which intersect with concerns in Cingulate cortex, Volume of distribution, Schizophrenia and Pharmacology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Characterization of 3 Novel Tau Radiopharmaceuticals, 11C-RO-963, 11C-RO-643, and 18F-RO-948, in Healthy Controls and in Alzheimer Subjects. (49 citations)
  • Effects of amyloid pathology and neurodegeneration on cognitive change in cognitively normal adults (43 citations)
  • Preclinical evaluation of 18F-RO6958948, 11C-RO6931643, and 11C-RO6924963 as novel PET radiotracers for imaging tau aggregates in Alzheimer disease (40 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Internal medicine
  • Statistics
  • Dopamine

His main research concerns Internal medicine, Longitudinal study, Standardized uptake value, Nuclear medicine and Positron emission tomography. His research integrates issues of Endocrinology, Oncology and Cardiology in his study of Internal medicine. His Endocrinology study often links to related topics such as Cannabinoid.

His Standardized uptake value research includes themes of Cohort study and Amyloid. He has included themes like Alzheimer's disease, Amyloid burden, Tauopathy and Radioligand in his Nuclear medicine study. His work deals with themes such as Cingulate cortex, Receptor, Pittsburgh compound B, Partial agonist and Volume of distribution, which intersect with Positron emission tomography.
