The article by Thomas et al. validated 123I-FP-CIT dopaminergic neuroimaging for the diagnosis of autopsy-proven Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). [1] The authors depicted 3 patients with DLB who met pathologic criteria for LBD but had normal 123I-FP-CIT imaging. [1] Although further description concerning severity of parkinsonism remains unclear, these patients may not have severe parkinsonism.
