Comparison of the Usefulness of Brain Perfusion SPECT and MIBG Myocardial Scintigraphy for the Diagnosis of Dementia with Lewy Bodies

Abstract

MIBG myocardial scintigraphy was superior to brain perfusion SPECT in detecting a characteristic feature of DLB. Our results suggest that combining SPECT and MIBG scintigraphy could increase the accuracy of clinical diagnosis of DLB.
