Different z-score cut-offs for striatal binding ratio (SBR) of DaT SPECT are needed to support the diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease (PD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB)

Lanfranchi F. Arnaldi D. Miceli A.

Purpose: A cut-off of -2 z-score for striatal or putaminal SBR has been to date arbitrarily used to define an abnormal DaT SPECT in patients with suspected neurodegenerative parkinsonism. We aimed to experimentally identify the most accurate z-score cut-offs for SBR of striatal and substriatal regions to independently discriminate PD and DLB,...
