ABSTRACT: We report the accumulation of Tc-TRODAT-1 in the region of subacute cerebral ischemic infarction in an 81-year-old woman with Parkinson disease. The dopamine transporter SPECT imaging was performed on the 15th day after the onset of acute cerebral ischemic clinical symptoms. Overexpression of dopamine transporters after infarction in subacute phase may explain the accumulation.
