Positron emission tomography in manganese intoxication

We employed 6‐fluorodopa to study the integrity of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic projection by positron emission tomography in 4 subjects with clinical features of mild parkinsonism caused by exposure to manganese. The 6‐fluorodopa scans were normal. This finding suggests that in early manganism su...
