Where should Parkinson check
summary
Parkinson's disease is also called Alzheimer's disease. Parkinson's disease is caused by senile diseases, because its average age of onset is over 60 years old. Generally, Parkinson's disease under 40 years old is relatively rare. Where does Parkinson want to check. Now let's have a chat.
Where should Parkinson check
First, patients with Parkinson's disease need to do routine laboratory examination, the examination results of patients are generally in the normal range, individual can have hyperlipidemia, diabetes, abnormal ECG and other changes.
Second, the examination of Parkinson's disease includes brain CT and MRI examination, which generally has no characteristic findings. Elderly patients may have different degrees of brain atrophy and ventricular enlargement. Some patients have cerebral lacunar infarction, and some patients have basal ganglia calcification.
Third: pet or SPECT with specific radionuclide detection. If L-dopa studies the metabolism of dopamine, we can get the information about the density and affinity of dopamine receptor, and find that the dopamine metabolism function in the brain of Parkinson's patients is significantly reduced. Before clinical symptoms appear, we can find that the absorption index of striatum is less than normal.
matters needing attention
Actively carry out functional exercise, especially the training of posture and gait. Let the patients finish their daily life by themselves as much as possible, but pay attention to protect the patients and prevent them from falling.
