Utility of DaTscan Imaging in Differentiating Drug Induced Parkinsonism from IPD and Other Forms of Parkinsonism
Objective: To determine clinical correlates which differentiate drug induced Parkinsonism (DIP) from IPD and other forms of Parkinsonism using DaT-SPECT imaging. Background: DaT-SPECT imaging is…Semiquantitative analyses of DAT-SPECT imaging with an automated striatal analysis software in differential diagnosis of neurodegenerative parkinsonism
Objective: We investigate the usefulness Dopamine transporter (DAT)-SPECT with an automated striatal analysis software in differential diagnosis of neurodegenerative parkinsonism. Background: DAT-SPECT imaging is sensitive…Global Regulatory Agencies Support the Use of Dopamine Transporter Neuroimaging for Subject Selection in Clinical Trials Targeting Early Stage Parkinson’s Disease – on behalf of Critical Path for Parkinson’s (CPP) Consortium
Objective: A key goal of the Critical Path for Parkinson’s Consortium (CPP) is to qualify, with regulatory agencies, drug development tools for use in PD…Multiple modality biomarker prediction of cognitive impairment in prospectively followed de novo Parkinson disease
Objective: To assess the neurobiological substrate of initial cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease (PD) to inform patient management, clinical trial design, and development of treatments.…Non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease and putamen dopamine transporter uptake (DaTscan) uptake: a survey of 85 patients
Objective: We addressed association between 30 non-motor symptoms (NMS) (using the validated Parkinson’s disease (PD) NMS Scale (NMSS)), and DaTscan putamen uptake ratios as part…Visual vs. automated analysis of [123I]FP-CIT SPECT scans in patients with parkinsonism
Objective: To investigate the differences between visual and automated analyses of brain dopamine transporter (DAT) SPECT scans. Background: Clinical evaluation of DAT SPECT scans typically…Comparison of DAT scan, cardiac MIBG scintigraphy, and cerebrospinal fluid 5HIAA levels in Parkinsonian syndrome
Objective: To assess the associations of presynaptic dopamine transporter (DAT scan), cardiac 123I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy, and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of 5-hydroxyindole acetic acid (5HIAA)…The efficacy of quantitative 99mTc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in diagnosis of aged patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We aim to establish the normal reference with quantitative 99mTc-Trodat-1 (TRODAT) SPECT and verify the diagnostic performance in aged Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Background:…Targeted over-expression with AAV-mediated human α-synuclein in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease – Validation of novel fine motor functional effects
Objective: Targeted over-expression of human α-synuclein using viral-vector mediated gene delivery into the substantia nigra of rats and non-human primates has been reported to lead…Study of striatal dopamine transporter function in Alzheimer’s disease with parkinsonism
Objective: To clarify the pathological basis for Alzheimer's disease (AD) with parkinsonism using striatal dopamine transporter (DAT) scan. Background: Pathological basis for parkinsonism in AD…
