Cerebral perfusion SPET correlated with Braak pathological stage in Alzheimer's disease.
Reductions in regional cerebral perfusion, particularly in the posterior temporo-parietal lobes, are well recognized in Alzheimer's disease. We set out to correlate perfusion changes, using (99m)Tc-HMPAO single photon emission tomography (SPET), with the pathological stage of Alzheimer's disease. The 'Braak stage' of the distribution of neurofibrillary pathology in post-mortem brains was used t...
متن کاملCerebral cortical arteriolar angiopathy, vascular beta-amyloid, smooth muscle actin, Braak stage, and APOE genotype.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We examined the associations among the vascular beta-amyloid levels, smooth muscle actin, wall thickness, and lumen diameter to achieve greater understanding of the arteriolar changes that accompany Alzheimer disease (AD). METHODS Post-mortem pathology brain specimens from 76 patients with AD and 19 non-AD age control subjects were studied. We analyzed arterioles of the...
متن کاملThe role of myocardial perfusion SPECT in short-term cardiac prognosis of end-stage renal disease
Introduction: One of the most important causes of death in patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and even after kidney transplantation is cardiovascular diseases. Thus, cardiac evaluation is of utmost importance in the management of these patients especially during preoperative work up before renal transplantation. The aim of present study is to evaluate the role of myoc...

متن کاملCorrelation of automatic processing method in myocardial perfusion SPET with the interactive method.
Different techniques have been introduced for full automatic processing of myocardial perfusion imaging with single-photon emission tomography. We tried to evaluate the accuracy of one of these commercial automatic processing methods. The study was performed in 300 patients during 18 months. Two post-stress acquisitions in supine and prone positions and one acquisition at rest , were performed ...
