Single photon emission computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging evaluation in SLE patients with and without neuropsychiatric involvement

Abstract

Combining SPECT and MRI appears more useful than the two techniques alone and may help the clinician in the assessment of patients with NP involvement since normal findings contemporarily detected by these two techniques have been rarely observed in patients with NP involvement especially in those with focal manifestations where MRI and SPECT were never simultaneously normal.
