EARLY DIAGNOSIS OF PARKINSON
DISEASE: NEUROSPECT FINDINGS OF TRODAT-1 Tc99m labeling of the DOPAMINE transporter (DAT).
Clinical Testing.
Figure 2. Trodat-1 NeuroSPECT Parkinsonīs Disease. 69 years old male with severe symptomatology. Notice markedly diminished uptake of Trodat-1 in DAT, bilaterally, left>right. Caudate and putamen present with diminished uptake. Notice that uptake in Basal Ganglia is less than in the occipital cortex. This is an important sign of Basal Ganglia damage.
