近日,美国FDA已经批准了DaTscan用于检测帕金森综合征(PS)疑似成年患者大脑内的多巴胺转运蛋白(DaT)。DaTscan作为多巴胺转运蛋白客观和准确的指标将能更好地帮助医生做出诊断决策。 DaTscan常见不良反应是头痛、头晕、食欲增加和蚁走感等。 Your doctor has prescribed a DaTscan imaging test for you or someone for whom you care. This test will give your doctor information to help him or her understand the symptoms you or your loved one is experiencing.
DaTscan is an imaging drug that will be injected into the bloodstream to help your doctor assess a chemical in your brain called dopamine. A special device, called a gamma camera, will take pictures of your brain. These pictures and a report will be sent to your doctor, who can discuss the test results with you. The DaTscan results may help determine if the symptoms you are experiencing are the result of a Parkinsonian syndrome.
Parkinsonian syndromes occur when your brain is not getting enough of the dopamine it needs to perform certain functions. This affects the brain’s ability to control movement and other muscle functions.
There are different types of Parkinsonian syndromes. The most common is Parkinson’s disease, also known as PD. Other types include multiple system atrophy and progressive supranuclear palsy. DaTscan cannot distinguish between these different syndromes. In combination with other tests, DaTscan may help your doctor determine if you are suffering from a Parkinsonian syndrome.
The DaTscan test will be performed in the nuclear medicine department of a hospital or in an outpatient clinic.
DaTscan is for adult patients who have signs or symptoms of Parkinsonian syndromes, such as shaking or stiffness. DaTscan is available only with a prescription from your doctor, and only your doctor can decide if this test is right for you.

This test may not be right for:
Sensitivity reactions (such as rash or itching) have been reported after DaTscan administration. In clinical trials, the most common side effects were headache, nausea, dry mouth, or dizziness.
If you experience a serious side effect, you or your doctor may send a report to the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) MedWatch Adverse Event Reporting program online or by phone [1-800-332-1088]. |
