Lacunar infarctions and periventricular hypodensity are assumed to be typical CT patterns of cerebral microangiopathy (MA). In 17 patients with such findings and in 6 controls without any signs of central nervous system disease cranial CT, MRT and 99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT were employed. In 7 patients with CT findings of minor MA demonstrated in comparison to controls no significant difference. In 10 cases with CT findings of pronounced MA periventricular rCBF was significantly reduced compared to controls. rCBF of temporal and parietal cortex were not diminished compared to controls. In 14 patients studied with MRT deep white matter lesions were found which appeared solitary, multiple or confluent. Employing 99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT, cerebral MA revealed rCBF reduction in periventricular brain tissue by cerebellar standardization.

The symptoms of Parkinson’s disease often begin on one side of the body and continue to do so as the disease progresses. First SPECT results in 4 patients with hemiparkinsonism using 99mTc-HMPAO as perfusion marker are reported. Three patients exhibited reduced tracer uptake in the contralateral basal ganglia One patient who was under therapy for 1 year, showed a different perfusion pattern with reduced uptake in both basal ganglia. These results might indicate reduced perfusion secondary to reduced striatal neuronal activity.

18 psychopharmacologically treated patients (7 schizophrenics, 5 schizoaffectives, 6 depressives) were studied using 99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT of the brain. The regional cerebral blood flow was measured in three transversal sections (infra-/supraventricular, ventricular) within 6 regions of interest (ROI) respectively (one frontal, one parietal and one occipital in each hemisphere). Corresponding ROIs of the same section in each hemisphere were compared. In the schizophrenics there was a significantly reduced perfusion in the left frontal region of the infraventricular and ventricular section (p < 0.02) compared with the data of the depressives. The schizoaffectives took an intermediate place. Since the patients were treated with psychopharmaca, the result must be interpreted cautiously. However, our findings seem to be in accordance with post-mortem-, CT- and PET-studies presented in the literature. Our results suggest that 99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT may be helpful in finding cerebral abnormalities in endogenous psychoses.

ZusammenfassungBei 29 Patienten (3 Kontrollpersonen, 26 Patienten mit zerebrovaskulärer Erkrankung) wurde prospektiv die Hirn-SPECT mit 99mTC-HMPAO und bei 20 Patienten (3 Kontrollpersonen, 17 Patienten mit ZVK) die transkranielle Dopplersonographie (TCD) vor und nach i. v. Gabe von Azetazolamid durchgeführt. Die Sensitivität der Hirn-SPECT erhöhte sich mit Azetazolamid von 62% auf 77%. Bei Patienten mit reversiblem neurologischem Defizit wurde eine Verbesserung von 50% auf 71 %, bei Patienten mit persistierendem Defizit von 75% auf 83% beobachtet. Die Ergebnisse der Hirn-SPECT und der TCD stimmten in der Beurteilung der zerebro-vaskulären Reservekapazität in 91% der Hemisphären überein. Die Korrelation zwischen den beiden Methoden war statistisch signifikant.

ZusammenfassungDie Daten von insgesamt 20 Patienten mit fokalen Epilepsien (beh.: 7; unbeh.: 13) wurden mit dem Ziel ausgewertet, Unterschiede in der Bindung der Radiotracer HMPAO und IM घ zwischen behandelten und unbehandelten Patienten herauszufinden. CT und MIRT zeigten keine pathologischen Befunde. Bei allen Patienten wurden mittels SPECT die Gesamthirnaktivität und durch Anwendung der ROI-Technik regionale Impulsdichten (Rl) bestimmt und der spezifische und unspezifische Anteil der Rl des BZ-Antagonisten für jede Region berechnet. In der Gruppe der beh. Patienten konnte eine signifikant höhere normalisierte Gesamtbindung von IMZ gefunden werden (p <0,001). Die spezifische Bindung von IMZ und die Gesamtbindung von HMPAO zeigten keine Unterschiede zwischen beiden Gruppen. Die IMZ-SPECT hatte in unserem Kollektiv gegenüber der HMPAO-SPECT in bezug auf das EEG eine höhere Sensitivität bei geringerer Spezifität im Nachweis einer Minderanreicherung des Tracers in Arealen mit fokaler hypersynchroner Erregungssteigerung.

99mTc-HMPAO-SPECT and SPECT with the 123I-labelled benzodiazepine (Bz) receptor ligand Ro 16-0154 were performed in 10 patients suffering from partial epilepsy, without cerebral lesion in MRT or CT. 2 h p.i. of Ro 16-0154 the distribution of activity correlated with the known distribution of Bz- receptors in the human brain. Perfusion and receptor-binding were found decreased in 7 patients of each study in the suspicious brain-area. 123l-labelled Ro 16-0154 is suitable for Bz-receptor mapping by SPECT. The decrease of Bz-receptor binding in epileptic foci, as described in PET-studies, was also detected by SPECT in 7 of 10 patients.
