Diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies: diagnostic performance of combined 123I-IMP brain perfusion SPECT and 123I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy
OBJECTIVE We assessed the value of combining (123)I-IMP brain perfusion SPECT and (123)I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy for the discrimination of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) from other types of dementia. METHODS We subjected 252 consecutive patients with clinically suspected DLB to both (123)I-IMP brain perfusion SPECT and (123)I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy. Patients with Parkinson's disea...
متن کاملUptake index of 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine myocardial scintigraphy for diagnosing Lewy body disease
Objective(s): Iodine-123 metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy has been used to evaluate cardiac sympathetic denervation in Lewy body disease (LBD), including Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). The heart-tomediastinum ratio (H/M) in PD and DLB is significantly lower than that in Parkinson’s plus syndromes and Alzheimer’s disease. Although this ra...
متن کامل[Utility of early imaging of myocardial innervation scintigraphy in the diagnosis of Lewy Body Dementia].
UNLABELLED The importance of accurate and early diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) lies in its pharmacological management. Delayed imaging of cardiac (123)I-MIBG scintigraphy allows differentiation between DLB and other neurodegenerative diseases with cognitive impairment. The aim of this study was to assess the utility of early imaging of cardiac (123)I-MIBG scintigraphy for differen...
متن کاملDevelopment of an 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine Myocardial Three-Dimensional Quantification Method for the Diagnosis of Lewy Body Disease
Objective(s): We recently developed a new uptake index method for 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) heart uptake measurements by using planar images (radioisotope angiography and planar image) for the diagnosis of Lewy body disease (LBD), including Parkinson’s disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies(DLB). However, the diagnostic accuracy of the uptake index was approximately equal to ...
متن کامل123I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy in patients with "takotsubo" cardiomyopathy.
UNLABELLED The clinical characteristics of reversible left ventricular dysfunction due to "takotsubo" cardiomyopathy have been described, but the origin of this condition remains unclear. This study investigated (123)I-metaiodobenzlguanidine ((123)I-MIBG) myocardial scintigraphy in patients with takotsubo cardiomyopathy. METHODS Eight consecutive patients with takotsubo cardiomyopathy were st...
