The purpose of this study is to determine whether F-18 FPCIT is effective and safe radiopharmaceutical for the objective diagnosis of Parkinson's disease.
Parkinson's disease is a common neurodegenerative disorder with loss of dopaminergic terminals in the striatum. Essential tremor is one of the conditions most commonly misdiagnosed as parkinsonism, and early clinical differentiation between these conditions can be difficult. F-18 FPCIT is a promising radiopharmaceutical for PET imaging to assess the dopamine transporter in the striatum.
