Nuclear medicine and biology. Apr 2014. 41(4):322-9.

(99m)Tc-TRODAT-1 is the first clinical routine (99m)Tc radiopharmaceutical to evaluate dopamine neurons loss in Parkinson's disease (PD). (18)F-AV-133 is a novel PET radiotracer targeting the vesicular monoamine transporter type 2 (VMAT2) to detect monoaminergic terminal reduction in PD patients. The aim of this study is to compare both images in the same health control (HC) and PD subjects.

Correlation of Parkinson Disease Severit

Correlation of Parkinson Disease Severity and [18F]-FP-(+)-DTBZ Positron Emission Tomography

JAMA Neurology., JAMA Neurology.  2014 Jun 1;71(6):758-66.

Currently, diagnosis of Parkinson disease is mainly based on clinical criteria characterized by motor symptoms including bradykinesia, rigidity, resting tremor, and postural instability. Reliable in vivo biomarkers to monitor disease severity and reflect the underlying dopaminergic degeneration are important for future disease-modifying therapy in Parkinson disease.

Optimal scanning time window for 18F-FP-

18F-9-fluoropropyl-(+)-dihydrotetrabenazine (18F-AV-133) is a novel positron emission tomography tracer for imaging the vesicular monoamine transporter II in dopaminergic neuron degeneration, which might be indicative for Parkinson's disease (PD) and other parkinsonism. Studies were performed to optimize the imaging time window for calculating standardized uptake value ratio (SUVR) with correlation to distribution volume ratio (DVR) and in differentiating PD from normal controls (NCs).
