CTE Testing Robert Blease

CTE Chronic traumatic encephalopathy Memory Loss, Confusion, Depression, eventual progressive dimensia Tau Proteins

Past Detection Was only able to be done posthumously Stained tissue using amino acids Reacts with tau protiens

New Detection Radioactive tracer dye injected (FDDNP) PET Scan

Scans

Advantages Allows for immediate detection Will protect future athletes and organizations Will allow for a treatment to form Could help with cross treatment of Alzheimer's and dementia
