Assessing Neuroinflammatory Involvement in ME/CFS via MRI and PET

In this video, we present an exclusive interview with Jonas Bergquist, MD, PhD, from the OMF Collaborative Center at Uppsala, who shares insights on neuroinflammatory involvement in ME/CFS. Neuroinflammation and microglia activation are often implicated in ME/CFS, making it important to understand what happens in the central nervous system (CNS). Traditional methods of measuring activity in the CNS are invasive, often requiring a lumbar puncture to collect cerebrospinal fluid. Dr. Bergquist at the OMF Collaborative Center at Uppsala is conducting a study using novel MRI and PET imaging techniques to help understand what is happening in the CNS through non-invasive methods. This study has received IRB approval, which means it has transitioned from the “Study Design, IRB/Ethics Review” stage to the “Recruitment, Data Collection” stage of the research process. Watch this interview to learn more about this study directly from Dr. Bergquist.
