الوصف: Abstract 123I-FP-CIT SPECT enables the detection of presynaptic dopaminergic denervation. It allows to differentiate degenerative parkinsonian syndromes from secondary parkinsonian syndromes or essential tremor, and patients with suspected dementia with Lewy bodies from those with other dementia subtypes. The aim of our study was to evaluate the appropriateness of 123I-FP-CIT SPECT prescriptions, identify prescriber profiles and analyze changes in prescriptions over a decade in the Neurology department of Avicenne University hospital. This retrospective study included all patients who underwent 123I-FP-CIT SPECT between February 2009 and May 2019 (n = 723). Clinical and paraclinical data were compared between three groups based on the relevance of 123I-FP-CIT SPECT prescription: “inappropriate”, “uncertain” and “relevant”. We showed that inappropriate indications accounted for 37.5% of 123I-FP-CIT SPECT requests. Hospital neurologists and neurologists with mixed practice accounted for 74.1% of 123I-FP-CIT SPECT requests, hospital movement disorders specialists being more likely to prescribe appropriately (67.1%) than hospital non-movement disorders specialists (33.3%). Following the replacement of the neuro-oncology team with a team including movement disorders specialists, the percentage of relevant SPECT 123I-FP-CIT prescriptions rose from 37.5% to 81.0%. These observations suggest that seeking the expertise of a movement disorders specialist would be more relevant than the systematic prescription of 123I-FP-CIT SPECT.
