  • Title: Redistribution of crossed cerebellar diaschisis.
    Author: Kim SM, Park CH, Intenzo CM, Bell R.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1989 Apr; 14(4):290-1. PubMed ID: 2785016.
    Abstract:
    Crossed cerebellar diaschisis refers to a functional decrease in blood flow to the cerebellar hemisphere contralateral to the infarcted or ischemic cerebral hemisphere. This phenomenon can be depicted using PET as well as using SPECT. This condition, seen on early I-123 IMP brain scans, can show redistribution on the three hour delayed scan, presumably due to normal non-specific amine receptor sites of the affected cerebellum. One such case is reported.
