Effect of central cholinergic stimulation on regional cerebral blood flow in Alzheimer's disease.

K Wilson1, D Bowen, P Francis, P Tyrrell.   

Abstract

Patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) had reduced regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) in the posterior parietotemporal region compared with controls, as determined with technetium-99m hexamethyl propyleneamine oxime and single photon emission tomography. Central cholinergic stimulation with physostigmine produced a focal increase in rCBF in the posterior parietotemporal region in the patients with AD but not in controls.
