Abstract
© 2020 Regional changes in brain metabolism upgraded with measurements of specific metabolic brain patterns and automated diagnostic algorithms can help to differentiate among neurodegenerative parkinsonisms, but with few reports on pathological confirmation. Here we describe a parkinsonian patient with atypical presentation and 18F-FDG-PET imaging consistent with idiopathic Parkinson's disease. The latter was confirmed at the pathohistological examination.
