Clinical use of SPECT in neurology
In neurological diagnostics, Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) is used only in a limited number of indications, mainly: 1) in presurgical assessment of refractory epilepsy patients, 2) in differential diagnostics of parkinsonian syndrome, 3) to assess functional cerebrovascular reserve in patients with internal carotic or intracerebral artery stenosis.
Keywords: SPECT, epilepsy, parkinsonian syndrome, cerebrovascular diseases.
