Single photon emission tomography with 99mTc-exametazime in major depression and the pattern of brain activity underlying the psychotic/neurotic continuum.
Forty patients with a major depressive episode were investigated at rest using Single Photon Emission Tomography (SPET or SPECT) with 99mTc-exametazime, an intravenous ligand taken into brain in proportion to regional cerebral blood flow, thereby providing an estimate of regional metabolism. All pat...
