Overview

Piero Antuono is affiliated with the Medical College of Wisconsin in the United States. Their research primarily focuses on several interconnected fields within medicine and neuroscience. The main areas of study include medicine, with four publications, and neuroscience, with two publications. Subfields of particular interest include neurology, psychiatry and mental health, physiology, cognitive neuroscience, and cellular and molecular neuroscience.

Their research topics cover a broad spectrum related to neurological conditions and brain function. These topics include dementia and cognitive impairment research, Alzheimer's disease research and treatments, functional brain connectivity studies, neurological disorders and treatments, genetic neurodegenerative diseases, and Parkinson's disease mechanisms and treatments.

Antuono has contributed to multiple recent papers, reflecting a focus on neurodegenerative disorder differentiation and brain atrophy measurement using MRI techniques. Notable recent papers include:

  • The Use of an Anterior-Posterior Atrophy Index to Distinguish Alzheimer's Disease from Frontotemporal Disorders: An Automated Volumetric MRI Study (2023, SSRN Electronic Journal)
  • The Use of an Anterior-Posterior Atrophy Index to Distinguish Alzheimer's Disease from Frontotemporal Disorders: An Automated Volumetric MRI Study (2024, Acta Radiologica)
  • Brainstem Atrophy across the AD Clinical Spectrum: An Automated Volumetric MRI Study (2024, Alzheimer's & Dementia)

Frequent publication venues for Antuono include the SSRN Electronic Journal, Acta Radiologica, and Alzheimer's & Dementia, each hosting at least one publication. This distribution indicates engagement with both interdisciplinary and specialized journals in their fields of interest.

Antuono collaborates with several coauthors across their work. Frequent collaborators include Elias Granadillo, Leah R. Gerlach, Vivek Prabhakaran, Deepali Bhalla, and Barbara B. Bendlin. These collaborations reflect ongoing partnerships in research related to neuroimaging and neurodegenerative disease.
