Are There Limitations to Using DAT Scans in Toxicology?
Although DAT scans are a powerful tool, they also have limitations. The resolution of the imaging may not capture subtle changes in dopamine transporter density, and the interpretation of results can be complicated by factors such as age, medication use, and concurrent neurological conditions. Additionally, DAT scans are not a standalone diagnostic tool and should be used in conjunction with other assessments for a comprehensive evaluation.
