Positron emission tomography (PET) and single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) are now available for routine clinical applications in neurology. This article discusses their diagnostic use in dementia, brain tumors, epilepsy, parkinsonism, cerebrovascular disease, and traumatic brain injury.
Neuromolecular imaging, also known as nuclear neurology, involves clinical imaging of both basal regional physiology (perfusion, metabolism, and transport mechanisms) and specific neurochemical physiology (currently, only the dopamine transporter). This article serves as an introduction to neuromolecular imaging, reviewing the literature supplemented by the author's experience.
Neurologic PET and SPECT are no longer restricted to the research realm. These modalities have high diagnostic accuracy.
正电子发射断层扫描（PET）和单光子发射计算机断层扫描（SPECT）现已可用于神经病学的常规临床应用。本文讨论了它们在痴呆、脑肿瘤、癫痫、帕金森病、脑血管疾病和创伤性脑损伤中的诊断用途。
神经分子成像，也称为核神经病学，涉及基础区域生理学（灌注、代谢和转运机制）以及特定神经化学生理学（目前仅多巴胺转运体）的临床成像。本文作为神经分子成像的介绍，结合作者的经验对文献进行综述。
神经PET和SPECT不再局限于研究领域。这些检查方法具有很高的诊断准确性。
