A third cerebral MRI again showed only a mild cortical atrophy and a small calcification of the falx (Figure 1). Dopamine transporter imaging with 123I-2beta-carbomethoxy-3beta-(4-iodophenyl)-N-(3-fluoropropyl)-nortropane (123FP-CIT) SPECT was also carried out which showed reduced striatal binding with a reduction in both the putamen and caudate nuclei to occipital cortex uptake ratios (Figure 1).
