Diagnostic and Pathophysiological Impact of Myocardial MIBG Scintigraphy in Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's Disease, 2010
Myocardial MIBG scintigraphy is established in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Numerous studies address the pathophysiological impact of myocardial MIBG scintigraphy: the myocardial MIBG uptake correlates with the ...

Neurological applications for myocardial MIBG scintigraphy

Nuclear Medicine Review, 2013
Signs or symptoms of impaired autonomic regulation of circulation are typically present in patients affected by Parkinson's disease (PD), in agreement with the cardiac sympathetic denervation discovered by Goldstein more than 15 yrs. ago. In particular, the majority of PD patients have a diffuse left ventricular myocardial sympathetic denervation ...

The significance of metaiodobenzylguanidine scintigraphy in the treatment of high risk neuroblastomas [PDF]

Medicinski Podmladak, 2020
Introduction: Neuroblastoma cells show the expression of norepinephrine transporters enabling the intercellular location of mIBG, which turned out to be ideal for the visualization of neuroblastoma, as well as for the treatment of these tumors in certain

Pheochromocytoma – clinical manifestations, diagnosis and current perioperative management [PDF]

, 2019
Pheochromocytoma is a neuroendocrine tumor characterized by the excessive production of catecholamines (epinephrine, norepinephrine, and dopamine). The diagnosis is suspected due to hypertensive paroxysms, associated with vegetative phenomena, due to the
