ABSTRACT:
Physiological conditions in a subject which result in a reduction in the rate of protein synthesis are detected by the administration of a labeled amino acid, followed by imaging of the subject's body to detect the uptake of the labeled amino acid in protein synthesis. The method is particularly useful as applied to the detection of ischemic events, focal or global, as well as hypoglycemia and status epilepticus.
