Abstract
It is usual in psychiatric clinic arise diagnostic hypothesis for the same patient. Take for example the schizophrenia, the classic definition was of a disease of the thoughts, and that no machine explored the thoughts. The advent of cerebral SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography) made it possible the formation of Data Bank. The SPECT when made cerebral images is known as cerebral perfusion scintigraphy, it is done with a drug that in minute fraction is extracted of blood to the interior of the neurons, through the haemato-encephalic barrier, still there for hours. The psychiatry is one of the more needy medical specialities, in terms of complementary examinations, and the cerebral SPECT done with HMPAO could be used to help the clinician in doubt cases. In this work we present two clinical cases where the cerebral SPECT produce a confinable diagnostic about schizophrenia. The mathematical language used by nuclear medicine inform that the obtained image belongs to a psychiatric specific group of diseases.
