[¹⁸F]FDG PET in conditions associated with hyperkinetic movement disorders and ataxia: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To give a comprehensive literature overview of alterations in regional cerebral glucose metabolism, measured using [¹⁸F]FDG PET, in conditions associated with hyperkinetic movement disorders and ataxia. In addition, correlations between glucose metabolism and clinical variables as well as the effect of treatment on glucose metabolism are discussed.

Methods

A systematic literature search was performed according to PRISMA guidelines. Studies concerning tremors, tics, dystonia, ataxia, chorea, myoclonus, functional movement disorders, or mixed movement disorders due to autoimmune or metabolic aetiologies were eligible for inclusion. A PubMed search was performed up to November 2021.

Results

Of 1240 studies retrieved in the original search, 104 articles
