Diagnoses behind patients with hard-to-classify tremor and normal DaT-SPECT: A clinical follow up study [PDF]
Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2014 The [123I]ioflupane - a dopamine transporter radioligand - SPECT (DaT-SPECT) has proven to be useful in the differential diagnosis of tremor. Here, we investigate the diagnoses behind patients with hard-to-classify tremor and normal DaT-SPECT. Therefore,
