The U.S. National Institutes of Health (NIH) has highlighted a study that shows cardiac PET scans can help identify people at risk for Parkinson’s disease and Lewy body dementia. In a study of 34 people at risk for these diseases, NIH scientists used PET scans to show that individuals with low uptake of F-18 dopamine PET radiotracer in the heart were highly likely to develop Parkinson’s or Lewy body dementia (LBD) during long-term follow-up, compared to individuals with the same risk factors but
