It was an ok experience. No reactions. They inject a radioactive drug that binds to your dopamine receptors and then scan your brain. You have to be very still while scanning. My PD symptoms were greatly reduced after they gave me the drug. The test pretty well confirmed PD as opposed to essential tremors.
