The SBR was decreased using TM. The effect of TM on the SBR tended to be small in the subjects with severe brain atrophy. The effect of brain atrophy in the TM is larger in the striatal VOIs than in the reference VOIs. Even if quantitative analyses are available, visual assessment of 123I-FP-CIT SPECT is essential for diagnosis.
