Subcortical Aphasia After Striatocapsular Infarction: Quantitative Analysis of Brain Perfusion SPECT Using Statistical Parametric Mapping and a Statistical Probabilistic Anatomic Map
|
This study examined the relationship between the severity of aphasia and regional cerebral perfusion on brain SPECT using statistical parametric mapping (SPM) and a statistical probabilistic anatomic map (SPAM) in patients with a striatocapsular infarction (SCI) along with the other clinical and imaging findings. Methods: The subjects were 16 right-handed Korean-speaking patients with a left SCI who underwent ^sup 99m^Tc-ethylcyteinate dimer (^sup 99m^Tc-ECD) SPECT (8.1 ± 4.8 d [mean ± SD] ...

The effect of coronary artery bypass surgery on brain perfusion
The Journal of Nuclear Medicine
; Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is one of the major treatment methods of coronary artery disease. CABG is an open-heart surgery that uses cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). After CPB, it is well known that neurological and neuropsychological complications may occur. The purpose of this study was
