Abstract: BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Nigrostriatal dopaminergic function in patients with Parkinson disease can be assessed using 123I-2β-carbomethoxy-3β-(4-iodophenyl)-N-(3-fluoropropyl)-nortropan dopamine transporter (123I-FP-CIT) SPECT, and a good correlation has been demonstrated between nigral status on SWI and dopaminergic denervation… read more here.
