Striatal monoamine terminals in Lewy body dementia and Alzheimer's disease
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-06)
We used positron emission tomography (PET) with (+)-[ 11 C]dihydrotetrabenazine ([+]-[ 11 C]DTBZ) to examine striatal monoaminergic presynaptic terminal density in 20 patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), 25 with ...
