Abstract
We describe a unique case of a patient presenting with unilateral mild paresis, slowing of the upper limb, and parkinsonism, who underwent a full imaging work-up including MRI, <sup>123</sup>I-FP-CIT PET, <sup>18</sup>F-FE-PE2I PET, and <sup>18</sup>F-FDG PET. This case demonstrates that imaging may aid substantially in the diagnostic work-up of complex neurologic disorders.
