18F-FDG PET-CT pattern in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalusDOI: 10.1016/j.nicl.2018.02.031 Keywords: FDG-PET, Normal pressure hydrocephalus, Hypometabolism, Caudate, Biomarker Abstract: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is an important and treatable cause of neurologic impairment. Diagnosis is complicated due to symptoms overlapping with other age related disorders. The pathophysiology underlying iNPH is not well understood. We explored FDG-PET abnormalities in iNPH patients in order to determine if FDG-PET may serve as a biomarker to differentiate iNPH from common neurodegenerative disorders
