Comparison and Review of DAT Scan, PET Scan, and α-synuclein In Relation to Parkinson’s Disease

In this article, the role of Dopamine Active Transporter (DAT) scan, and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scan along with α-synuclein regards to Parkinson’s disease will be discussed. Furthermore, their applications dependence as diagnostic techniques, well biomarkers, are also reviewed. short, DAT-SPECT PET scans can used differentiate between other Parkinsonian syndromes, but it takes experts many years experience help diagnosis. Ɑ-synuclein on hand may not serve a good biomarker does have potential in therapeutic treatments.
 few common diseases that most often misdiagnosed They include Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. MS deals degeneration myelin sheath which PSP build-up certain protein brain called tau. both cases, neuronal occurs, similar what happens respect Parkinson’s. Unfortunately, there is no current cure for Parkinson’s, PSP, or MS. 
 Lastly, paper reviews author's future plans regard neurodegenerative general. There dire need biomarkers and/or concrete technique detect earlier such progression either delayed treatment developed based this.
