Subject: PET scan wiht cortex with prominent anterior s/l *singulet* hypometabolism. Definite T at end. sm

The FDG-PET scan is classic textbook for frontotemporal dementia and confirms this clinical diagnosis with a high degree of diagnostic certainty.  The patient has severe bilaterally symmetric frontal hypometabolism. This includes both lateral and mesial portions of the cortex with prominent anterior *singulet* hypometabolism.  There are lesser degrees of anterior temporal hypometabolism but by far frontal lobes are more affected. There is also slight decrease in left parietal cortex with relative sparing of primary motor sensory cortex.

I was not sure about Nasonex.  Since I have no work until 9 AM and I get up early, I try to help people with only the terminology I know.  Otherwise I do not post.  I'm sorry I could not answer your question of Nasonex, but like I said, that is the only thing that comes to mind.  I looked in my drug books and found nothing other than that.  I looked in my ENT book as it has drugs listed and again nothing.  I have done a lot of research for you, be a little more appreciative.  Sounds like I got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning.  Good luck with your search.  Perhaps someone else can help you and that is your best bet when people start getting on.

may be just too new to have much info on.  I did see an article on Google with the Oakland Bone and Joint Specialists, where he and a colleague, Dr. Jeffrey Mann, were pioneering a new total ankle replacement.  This is copyrighted for 2007-2008, so maybe he has developed dressings, bandages and such. 


I'm gonna save this one, and if I do find it verified in any medical books, etc., will send you a message about it.  Thanks for sharing!
