Brain Evaluation by Dual PET/CT with [<sup>18</sup>F] FDOPA and [<sup>18</sup>F] FDG in Differential Diagnosis of Parkinsonian Syndromes

Parkinsonian syndromes are considered clinicopathological conditions that are challenging to diagnose. Molecular imaging with [18F]-FDOPA and [18F]-FDG contributes to a more accurate clinical diagnosis by evaluating presynaptic dopaminergic pathways and glucose metabolism, respectively. The aim of t...
