123I-metaiodobenzylguanidine myocardial scintigraphy in Parkinson's disease

Abstract

(123)I-MIBG myocardial scintigraphy might detect early disturbances of the sympathetic nervous system in Parkinson's disease and might give useful diagnostic information to differentiate vascular parkinsonism, essential tremor, and multiple system atrophy from Parkinson's disease.
