transported through the bloodstream to cells just like glucose, but cannot be metabolized. As a result, 2-deoxyglucose builds up rapidly in highly active cells. By using radiolabeled 2-deoxyglucose, in which one of the hydrogens is replaced with a radioactive element like fluorine, the molecule can be detected because it emits gamma rays. By using gamma ray cameras outside the body, much like a CAT scan, highly active regions of the brain can be detected and imaged. Disadvantages to PET imaging…

Baldi’s vocals were the final element to be recorded on the album, and he delivers his most emotionally complex performance to date. There’s a bruised quality to his delivery on “Surface” and an assertive resolve when he sings about moving on (and looking back) on “Enter Entirely.” You can hear both confidence and fragility on “Modern Act.” He’s always been good, but…
