Striatal Hyperperfusion Observed in Dual-Phase 18F-FP-CIT PET Imaging of Hyperglycemic Chorea.
A 76-year-old woman with a history of diabetes mellitus presented with right-side dominant generalized chorea. At presentation, her blood glucose level was 500 mg/dL with an HbA1C of 11%. Because the patient had been on levodopa treatment from her primary physician, a dual-phase 18F-FP-CIT PET scan was performed. The early-phase images showed increased perfusion in the bilateral striatum, and the delayed-phase images revealed decreased uptake in the left caudate. Hyperperfusion in the striatum may indicate the acute phase of hyperglycemic chorea. This image illustrates the advantage of adding early-phase scans in 18F-FP-CIT PET in differentiating various hyperkinetic and hypokinetic disorders.

Reduced 123I Ioflupane Binding in Bilateral Diabetic Chorea: Findings With 18F FDG PET, 99mTc ECD SPECT, and 123I MIBG Scintigraphy.
We report a 64-year-old man with diabetic chorea whom we investigated with dopamine transporter SPECT, F FDG PET, Tc ethylcysteinate dimer (ECD) SPECT, and I metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy. Dopamine transporter SPECT revealed reduced I ioflupane binding in the bilateral striatum. F FDG PET showed metabolic dysfunction in the bilateral striatum, as shown in earlier studies. Tc ECD SPECT revealed reduced brain perfusion in the bilateral caudate nucleus and putamen. I MIBG scintigraphy revealed no cardiac sympathetic nerve dysfunction. Our case suggests a possible nigrostriatal presynaptic dopaminergic involvement in diabetic chorea.
