Scinticisternography in presenile and senile degenerative disease

86 patients suffering from various senile and presenile degenerative diseases were studied using scinticisternography with In111-DTPA. Flow reversal and delayed clearance were observed in 62 of these patients. These alterations, possibly related to the cerebrospinal fluid dynamics, show the aspecificity of the SC picture. The SC picture does not seem to be correlated to the clinical signs.
