摘要
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive nervous system disorder that affects movement. The clinical presentation of PD is heterogeneous and overlaps with other conditions, such as the parkinsonian variant of multiple system atrophy (MSA-P), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and essential tremor, which makes accurate diagnosis difficult especially in the early stage. Brain imaging in patients with parkinsonism may increase the accuracy of differential diagnosis and thus help subject treatment. Moreover, molecular imaging is well suited for the detection of preclinical or prodromal PD cases. Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and Positron emission tomography (PET) provide function and molecular features in vivo in patients with PD. Tc-99m TRODAT SPECT is available in Taiwan for routine use in clinical practice to help clinicians differential diagnosis between PD and nondegenerative tremors. In addition, PET imaging using FDG or AV133 (targeting vesicular monoamine transporter 2) can help classify among PD and atypical parkinsonism (MSA-P and Lewy Body Dementia). Recently novel tau PET image had added more utility to assessing parkinsonian patients. Herein, the presentation provides an overview of molecular imaging advances and how these approaches help us to understand PD and atypical parkinsonisms.
