ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the differential diagnosis of early-stage Parkinson disease(PD) and vascular Parkinsonism(VP) by 99Tcm-TRODAT-1 single photon emission computed tomography brain imaging.Methods 99Tcm-TRODAT-1 SPECT brain imaging was performed on 47 patients with early-stage PD,26 with early-stage VP and 30 age-matched healthy control subjects.The radioactive ratio of striatum to cerebullum was calculated by region of interest(ROI) technique.The results were analyzed and compared.Results The distribution and quantities of 99Tcm-TRODAT-1 uptake were reduced in contralateral striatum to clinically symptomatic side of the patients with early-stage PD(P0.05).The radioactive ratio of striatum to cerebullum contralateral to the affected limb in the patients with early-stage PD was lower than that in the healthy control subjects while that to patients with early-stage VP were similar to that in the healthy control subjects.Conclusion 99Tcm-TRODAT-1 single photon emission computed tomography brain imaging and semiquantitative analysis are useful to differentiate VP from PD.
