18F-THK5351 PET images 46 days (A) and 271 days (B) after the injury. The rainbow color bar represents the normalized uptake of 18F-THK5351, with cerebellar uptake set as one. A PET images showed increased uptake of 18F-THK5351 in the right frontal and temporal lobes and in the left frontal lobe and increased 18F-THK5351 uptake with a ring-like pattern around the brain contusion in the right frontal lobe (black arrow heads). B PET images showed reduced uptake of 18F-THK5351 in the original sites of brain contusions in the right frontal and temporal lobes and in the left frontal lobe. Increased 18F-THK5351 uptakes were observed in the white matter surrounding the brain contusions (red arrows) and the corpus callosum (white arrows)
