Popis: I-123 HIPDM or IMP brain planar images, as well as SPECT images, have been useful in the detection of large lesion(s) of the cerebral cortex. Planar imaging may be useful not only for cerebral lesions, but also for a cerebellar abnormality and in certain clinical situations, such as phobia to a gantry or being too heavy for the imaging table, when SPECT imaging cannot be performed. The authors concur that a large cerebral lesion can be detected by planar images; in addition, cerebellar lesions, such as the presence of crossed cerebellar diaschisis (CCD), may be detectable by planar imaging using I-123 HIPDM. This article presents a patient with a large cerebral infarct detected by planar imaging whose CCD has been demonstrated by planar images.
