Summary:

Description	Radiopaedia case ID: 24415 Image ID: 4525080 Study description: Pre-operative SPECT Study findings: RADIOPHARMACEUTICAL: 99mTc ECD, 620 MBq CLINICAL INDICATION Clinical neurological deterioration with gait abnormality. RESULTS: These studies show mild to moderate reduction of perfusion to the cerebral cortex most marked in the mesial surface is at the anterior cingulate gyrus. There is also reduction of white matter perfusion which appears to be in excess of the ventriculomegaly. Perfusion of the basal ganglia is reduced disease pontine perfusion but not cerebellar perfusion. OVERALL IMPRESSION The studies suggest predominantly white matter and mesial grey matter perfusion reduction in a pattern suspicious of normal pressure hydrocephalus though other global cortical disease is are possible though less likely. Modality: Nuclear medicine System: Central Nervous System Findings: Attention: 7/20 to 8/20 Visuoconstructional: 14.5/20 to17/20 Memory: 12/20 to 16/20 Executive: 12/20 to 15.5/20 Language: 19.5/20 to 17.5/20 Total: 65/100 improving to 74/100
