Are brain SPECT scans useful?

Posted by Chris O on March 2, 2005, at 17:22:35

I'm just curious if anyone here has had a SPECT scan made of their brain, and if they found the information from the scan useful. I have seen two different psychiatrists who are of opposite opinions on the subject. One says they make "pretty pictures" but provide little valid information. The other thinks they are "right on" and helps facilitate the correct meds and treatment of mental illness. I live in southern California, near one of the Amen Clinics (Daniel Aman--guy who popularized SPECT scans). Has anyone had a SPECT scan with Dr. Aman and if so, what did you think?

Gracias,
Cristobal
