Striatal dopamine transporter availability in drug-naive patients with schizophrenia: a case-control SPECT study with [(99m)Tc]-TRODAT-1 and a meta-analysis.
Central dopaminergic hyperactivity has been one of the main hypotheses of the pathophysiology of schizophrenia since the 1970s. Excess dopamine (DA) neurotransmission in the striatum is hypothesized to alter the processing of information and result in psychotic symptoms in schizophrenia. Single photon emission computerized tomography (SPECT) provides in vivo indices of DA neurotransmission. Our...
متن کاملDopamine transporter change in drug-naive schizophrenia: an imaging study with 99mTc-TRODAT-1.
The aim of this study was to use a specific dopamine transporter (DAT) ligand, 99mTc-TRODAT-1 with single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) to investigate the densities of DAT in the striatal dopaminergic system in patients with schizophrenia. Striatal DAT uptakes were measured in 12 drug-nai;ve schizophrenic patients and 12 age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers. The psychometric to...
متن کاملThe striatal dopamine transporter in first-episode, drug-naive schizophrenic patients: evaluation by the new SPECT-ligand[99mTc]TRODAT-1.
Following the current hypothesis that acute schizophrenic psychotic illness is associated with a striatal 'hyperdopaminergic state', presynaptic integrity and dopamine transporter (DAT) density in first-episode, neuroleptic-naive schizophrenic patients was measured by single-photon-emission-tomography (SPECT) and compared with that in healthy control subjects. A new SPECT-ligand for assessment ...
متن کاملExtra-striatal Uptake of 99mTc-TRODAT SPECT in a Cerebral Meningioma: A Case Report
We reported a 71 years old woman, with history of rest and postural tremor, bradykinesia and memory problems. In her dynamic MRI, a contrastenhanced tumor in the cerebellopontine (CP) angle was found which was compatible with a meningioma. 99mTc-TRODAT SPECT showed decreased activity in the left putamen, indicating idiopathic Parkinson disease. There was also a focus of increased activity on th...
متن کاملDopamine Transporter imaging with Tc-99m TRODAT-1 SPECT in Parkinson’s disease and its correlation with clinical disease severity
Objective(s): To evaluate the role of Tc-99m TRODAT-1 Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) by assessing the correlation of clinical disease severity, disease duration and age at onset of disease with specific uptake ratio of Tc-99m TRODAT-1 in striatum.Methods: The study included 63 patients in age range of 40-72 years with clinical diagnosis of PD and ...
