✦ Synopsis

We present two case studies, one of generalized chorea and one of hemichorea, both after severe hypoglycemia episodes. Both cases showed hyperperfusion in their SPECT scans. The MRI and SPECT findings serve as clues regarding the role of basal ganglion dysfunction associated with chorea.

## Abstract ## Background. The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of thallium‐201 (Tl‐201) single‐photon emission CT (SPECT) to detect recurrent nasopharyngeal carcinomas (NPC) when MRI findings are indeterminate. ## Methods. After radiotherapy, 26 NPC patients with indeterminate M
