Single Photon Emission Tomography Imaging in Parkinsonian Disorders: A Review

Quantitative single-photon emission computed tomography imaging.

Over the past decade, quantitation of cardiac single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) data, once limited to perfusion assessment, has been extended to global and regional function assessment for both the left and the right ventricle, as well as to measurement of additional cardiac parameters of diagnostic and prognostic interest. A number of commercially available quantitative algori...

Single photon emission computed tomography in seizure disorders.

Fourteen children with various seizure disorders were studied using a cerebral blood flow tracer, 123I iodoamphetamine (0.05 mCi/kg), and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). In the five patients with radiological lesions, SPECT showed congruent or more extensive abnormalities. Five of the nine children with a normal scan on computed tomography had abnormal SPECT studies consisti...

Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography

Single-photon emission computed tomography and positron emission tomography evaluations of patients with central motor disorders.

Neuroimaging biomarkers in movement disorders during the past decade have served as diagnostic agents (Europe), tools for evaluation of novel therapeutics, and a powerful means for describing pathophysiology by revealing in vivo changes at different stages of disease and within the course of an individual patient's illness. As imaging with agents tracking dopaminergic function become more avail...
