How much is Parkinson's disease
summary
How much is Parkinson's disease? At present, this kind of Parkinson's disease can not be cured and can only be suppressed, so prevention is the key, and the mentality should be put well after the disease.
How much is Parkinson's disease
One: Parkinson's disease examination can use SPECT imaging findings: through the functional imaging of dopamine receptor (DAR): dopamine receptor is widely distributed in the dopaminergic pathway of the central nervous system, mainly in the substantia nigra and striatum system, Dar (DL) is distributed in the corpus of striatum non cholinergic interneurons; Dar (D2) is located in the corpus nigra and striatum dopaminergic neurons.
Second: Parkinson's disease examination can observe CT and MRI image performance: because Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disease of the central nervous system, pathological changes are mainly in the substantia nigra, striatum, globus pallidus, caudate nucleus and cerebral cortex, so CT image performance, in addition to universal brain atrophy, sometimes can see basal ganglia calcification. In addition to ventricular enlargement and other signs of brain atrophy, T2 weighted images often have multiple hyperintense spots in basal ganglia and white matter.
Third: pet functional imaging can also be used in the field of Parkinson's disease: positron emission tomography (PET) diagnosis of Parkinson's disease, its working principle and method are basically similar to SPECT, at present mainly rely on brain glucose metabolism imaging, generally using 18F deoxyglucose (18FDG). Because in the early stage of Parkinson's disease, the local glucose metabolic rate of striatum is moderately decreased, and the glucose metabolic rate is further decreased in the late stage. There are many pet receptor imaging agents, pet neurotransmitter functional imaging agents mainly use 18F DOPA pet (18fd PET) and other nuclides, the basic principle is the same as SPECT.
matters needing attention
Parkinson's patients only accept Parkinson's examination can be finally diagnosed, so said Parkinson's never ignore timely medical examination is good.
