We are aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performances of quantitative indices obtained from dual-phase 18 F-FP-CIT PET/CT for differential diagnosis of atypical parkinsonian syndromes (APS) from Parkinson's disease (PD). We analyzed 172 subjects, including 105 non-Parkinsonism, 26 PD, 8 PSP, 1 CBD, 8 MSA-P, 9 MSA-C, and 15 DLB retrospectively. Two sequential PET/CT scans were acquired at 5 min and 3 h. We compared subregional binding potentials, putamen-to-caudate nucleus ratio of the binding potential, asymmetry index, and degree of washout. To differentiate APS, all BPs in both early and late phases (except late BPbrainstem) and all factors of the percent change except for putamen in APS significantly differed from PD. When a cut-off for early BPcerebellum was set as 0.79, the sensitivity, specificity (SP), positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and accuracy for differentiating APS 73.2%, 91.7%, 93.8%, 66.7%, and 80.0%. The early BPcerebellum showed significantly greater SP and PPV than the late quantitative indices. Combined criteria regarding both early and late indices exhibited only greater NPV. The quantitative indices showed high diagnostic performances in differentiating APS from PD. Our findings provide the dual-phase 18 F-FP-CIT PET/CT would be useful for differentiating APS from PD.
