Imaging approaches to Parkinson disease.
Parkinson disease (PD) is associated with nigral degeneration and striatal dopamine deficiency. Demonstrating midbrain structural abnormalities with transcranial sonography or diffusion-weighted MRI or showing striatal dopamine terminal dysfunction with PET or SPECT supports the diagnosis and rationalizes the use of dopaminergic medications. In atypical PD variants, transcranial sonography can ...
متن کاملMetabolic alterations in patients with Parkinson disease and visual hallucinations.
BACKGROUND Visual hallucinations (VHs) occur frequently in advanced stages of Parkinson disease (PD). Which brain regions are affected in PD with VH is not well understood. OBJECTIVES To characterize the pattern of affected brain regions in PD with VH and to determine whether functional changes in PD with VH occur preferentially in visual association areas, as is suggested by the complex clin...

متن کاملMetabolic imaging Metabolic imaging: the role of imaging in risk evaluation of ischemic heart disease
In ischemic heart disease (IHD), understanding the pathophysiology, and relating this to prognosis, are of prime importance. Many important physiological parameters have been shown to be closely related to patientoutcome in IHD. Myocardial perfusion,myocardial cell viability, left ventricular function, response of dysfunctional myocardium to revascularization, and cardiac sympathetic innervatio...
