Assessment of cognitive impairment using FP-CIT SPECT
Objective: We aimed to assess the cognitive impairment using FP-CIT SPECT in mild cognitive impairment or dementia patients. Background: In general, FP-CIT SPECT reflect pre-synaptic dopamine…Patterns of Striatal DAT Binding Loss in a Progressing Parkinson Disease (PD) Cohort: Four year PPMI Follow-up
Objective: To evaluate within subject striatal changes in dopamine transporter (DAT) binding using 123-I Ioflupane SPECT in PD participants studied over four years in the…Combination of multimodal neuroimaging techniques is useful to diagnose multiple system atrophy
Objective: To determine whether multiple system atrophy (MSA) patients can be differentiated form Parkinson's disease (PD) patients using combination of multimodal neuroimaging techniques. Background: MSA…The Role of MRI and DaTscan in Vascular Parkinsonism: A Case Report
Objective: The role of MRI and DAT scan in Vascular Parkinsonism: A Case Report Background: DaTscan has become a widely used clinical tool to help clinicians…Improved diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies by the combination of Tc-99m ECD SPECT with eZIS analysis and quantitative TRODAT-1 SPECT images
Objective: The development of easily useful neuroimaging may resolve to the delays of diagnosis. Background: Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is easy to be misdiagnosed…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…A dopamine-dependent activity of the STN in the control of balance in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the activity of the subthalamic nucleus (STN), and its relation to nigro-striatal dopaminergic denervation, in control of balance in Parkinson's disease (PD).…Decline in drawing ability associated with frontal dysfunction after subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of the present study was to elucidate the properties of drawing ability in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients after bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep…Parkinsonism in patients with CADASIL
Objective: To report the clinical manifestation of parkinsonism in patient with cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL) confirmed by the NOTCH3…
