Study Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine if the diagnostic performance of DaTscan™ single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging is different in non-Caucasian subjects compared with Caucasian subjects with movement disorders.

Primary Outcome

The majority blinded visual interpretation of each participant's image (3 blinded readers) was compared to his/her final clinical diagnosis, and the image interpretation was classified as true positive, false positive, true negative, or false negative. The counts of each classification type were used to determine the positive percent agreement (PPA, analogous to sensitivity) of the blinded visual image interpretations. The majority assessment was based on ≥ 2 of the 3 readers in agreement on the
