OverviewThis book describes the application of single photon emission tomography (SPET) to neuroactivation imaging in particular and neuroimaging in general. Protocols for SPET, neuroactivation and neuroimaging are described in detail and results are given and discussed on the basis of clinical material and case histories. Normal functional anatomy is correlated with data from MRI. High resolution cerebral blood flow (CBF) imaging is described with the use of SPET technology. Split dose CBF imaging is also mentioned, for activation studies in a variety of normal and diseased states which include the dementias (AIDS, Alzheimer's disease and multi-infarction dementia), cerebrovascular disease, depression, schizophrenia, obsessive compulsive disorders, movement disorders (Parkinson's disease, Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, Huntingdon's chorea, Sydenham's chorea), epilepsy and tumours. Examples of motor, frontal and visual activation studies are also given. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Mark S. George , H.A. Ring , D.C.
