SPECT-Untersuchungen mit dem 123I-markierten Dopamintransporter-Liganden FP-CIT (DaTSCANTM)

ZusammenfassungDie S1-Leitlinie soll bei der Indikationsstellung, Durchführung, Interpretation und Befundung von SPECT-Untersuchungen des Dopamintransporters (DAT) mit DaTSCANTM unterstützen. Gegenüber der Vorgängerversion von 2007 berücksichtigt die vorliegende Aktualisierung und Überarbeitung die neuere wissenschaftliche Literatur, zwischenzeitlich veröffentlichte Guidelines der europäischen (EANM) und amerikanischen Fachgesellschaften (SNM), sowie die aktuelle Fassung der S3-Leitlinie „Idiopathisches Parkinson-Syndrom“ der Deutschen Gesellschaft für Neurologie. Zudem finden neue technische Möglichkeiten Berücksichtigung.

Functional correlates of vertical gaze palsy and other ocular motor deficits in PSP: An FDG-PET study

Abstract Objective To determine the functional correlates of vertical gaze palsy and other ocular motor deficits in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) using [ 18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG-)PET. Methods Twenty-six patients with PSP underwent clinical examination of vertical gaze combined with FDG-PET scans to assess regional cerebral glucose metabolism as a marker of neuronal activity. Of these, eighteen PSP patients were also investigated by electrical nystagmography to determine horizontal ocular motor deficits. Statistical parametric mapping analyses were performed to correlate regional neuronal activity with ocular motor functions. Results In categorical comparisons, pati…

(R)-NODAGA-PSMA: A Versatile Precursor for Radiometal Labeling and Nuclear Imaging of PSMA-Positive Tumors

Purpose The present study aims at developing and evaluating an urea-based prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) inhibitor suitable for labeling with 111In for SPECT and intraoperative applications as well as 68Ga and 64Cu for PET imaging. Methods The PSMA-based inhibitor-lysine-urea-glutamate-coupled to the spacer Phe-Phe-D-Lys(suberoyl) and functionalized with the enantiomerically pure prochelator (R)-1-(1-carboxy-3-carbotertbutoxypropyl)-4,7-carbotartbutoxymethyl)-1,4,7-triazacyclononane ((R)-NODAGA(tBu)3), to obtain (R)-NODAGA-Phe-Phe-D-Lys(suberoyl)-Lys-urea-Glu (CC34). CC34 was labeled with 111In, 68Ga and 64Cu. The radioconjugates were further evaluated in vitro and in vivo in LNC…

Neuronal Correlates of Clinical Asymmetry in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is characterized by a symmetric hypokinetic syndrome with early falls and vertical supranuclear gaze palsy. However, clinically asymmetric manifestations occur, resembling idiopathic Parkinson disease or corticobasal degeneration. The aim of this study was to determine the neuronal correlates of patients suffering from PSP with a lateralized disease manifestation (hemi-PSP) in comparison to patients with symmetric clinical presentation (symPSP) and corticobasal degeneration.Twenty-three patients with PSP and 8 patients with corticobasal degeneration according to standard diagnostic criteria underwent F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET scans to assess disease…
