Delphi consensus guidelines for the use of striatal dopaminergic imaging and cardiac metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy for the diagnosis of dementia and mild cognitive impairment with Lewy bodies [PDF]
INTRODUCTION The aim of this Delphi process was to develop consensus guidelines to support the effective use of striatal dopaminergic imaging and cardiac metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy in the diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies and mild ...

A case of adrenal endothelial cyst (vascular type) with positive 123I-MIBG uptake [PDF]
123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy is highly accurate for diagnosing pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL), and positive uptake in non-PPGL adrenal lesions is rare.

Investigation into cardiac sympathetic innervation during the commencement of haemodialysis in patients with chronic kidney disease [PDF]
Background: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) who undergo chronic haemodialysis (HD) show altered sympathetic tone, which is related to a higher cardiovascular mortality. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of transition from

BackgroundDecreased myocardial uptake of 131I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is known to be an important feature to diagnose Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the diagnosis accuracy of myocardial MIBG scintigraphy alone is often unsatisfying.

Two Cases of Hereditary Paraganglioma-Pheochromocytoma Syndrome in Siblings, Caused by a Novel Succinate Dehydrogenase Complex Subunit D Variant. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Introduction Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas are increasingly recognized as hereditary malignancies, with ~30%–40% of cases involving germline variants. We report a familial case of hereditary pheochromocytoma‐paraganglioma syndrome caused by a novel variant in the SDHD gene.

Background: Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, with incidence and prevalence rates of 8–18 per 100,000 people per year and 0.3–1%, respectively. As parkinsonian symptoms do not appear until approximately 50–60% of the nigral

On the Utility of MIBG SPECT/CT in Evaluating Cardiac Sympathetic Dysfunction in Lewy Body Diseases. [PDF]
Abnormal cardiac uptake of 123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine (123I-MIBG) is a diagnostic marker of Lewy body diseases (LBDs), e.g., Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).
