A meta-analysis of 99mTc-MIBI SPECT for detection of recurrent glioma after radiation therapy
We performed a meta-analysis of the diagnostic accuracy of technetium-99m methoxyisobutylisonitrile ((99m)Tc-MIBI) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) for assessment of glioma recurrence in patients after radiation therapy. The "PubMed"…
OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to report clinical spectrum of central post stroke pain (CPSP) and correlate these with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and single photon emission computed…
Based on 1) neuroanatomical and neuroimaging studies indicating aberrations in brain regions that are rich in glutamate neurons and 2) similarities between symptoms produced by N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) antagonists in healthy…

Using imaging to identify psychogenic parkinsonism before deep brain stimulation surgery
The frequency with which patients with atypical parkinsonism and advanced motor symptoms undergo deep brain stimulation (DBS) procedures is unknown. However, the potential exposure of these patients to unnecessary surgical…

Cerebral Perfusion in Patients With Chronic Neck and Upper Back Pain: Preliminary Observations
The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between cerebral perfusion levels, Neck Disability Index (NDI) scores, and spinal joint fixations in patients with neck pain. METHODS: Forty-five…
Development of treatments for acute and chronic pain conditions remains a challenge, with an unmet need for improved sensitivity and reproducibility in measuring pain in patients. Here we used pulsed-continuous…
OBJECTIVE: Failed back surgery syndrome (FBSS) is a well-recognized consequence of surgery of the lumbar spine. Here, we present a case with FBSS associated neuropathic pain. CASE SUMMARY: During hospital…

Predictive value of brain perfusion SPECT for ketamine response in hyperalgesic fibromyalgia.
PURPOSE: Ketamine has been used successfully in various proportions of fibromyalgia (FM) patients. However, the response to this specific treatment remains largely unpredictable. We evaluated brain SPECT perfusion before treatment…
BACKGROUND: Single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) has been employed in the study of altered regional cerebral blood flow (CBF) in experimental and chronic pain. CBF patterns have not been evaluated…
Major depression (MD) is the most frequent psychiatric disorder with a predicted increase within the next decade. The understanding of the neurobiologic basis of its cause, antidepressive treatment effects, and…
OBJECTIVE: To study cerebral blood flow pattern seen on single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scan in neonates with hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy (HIE) and to correlate it with immediate neurological…
