  • Title: Brain SPECT imaging in progressive aphasia.
    Author: Lee H, Kramer JH.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1992 Oct; 17(10):800-2. PubMed ID: 1424356.
    Abstract:
    Progressive aphasia without dementia is a relatively uncommon neurobehavioral syndrome. The initial presentation of progressive aphasia without cognitive impairment may pose a diagnostic dilemma. The authors report a patient with progressive aphasia. The initial neuro-imaging studies (MRI, CT) were not diagnostically helpful. However, brain SPECT imaging with Tc-99m HMPAO clearly demonstrated a left temporal lobe abnormality. This report discusses the potential clinical usefulness of brain SPECT imaging in the evaluation of neurobehavioral disorders.
