Study Summary

This clinical imaging study will use the small molecule translocator protein (TSPO) ligand, Fluorodeoxyglucose(18F)-labeled DPA-714, to visualize and quantify neuroinflammation in individuals with post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) . The brain uptake of DPA-714 will be contrasted with healthy subjects.

Primary Outcome

PET measures of TSPO binding in brain regions including cerebral cortex, thalami, and brainstem will be quantified in symptomatic study participants and healthy volunteers will be collected and compared between groups
