Résumé
The novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has changed people's normal lives in a very short time causing extensive infections and mortality, which required the national health systems to be adapted to new situation. Changes in healthcare services included modifications of standard procedures in nuclear medicine departments in order to limit COVID-19 spreading and protect patients and personnel. Here, we recommend management of patients with neurological diseases and especially dementia and movement disorders, who are referred for neuroimaging with nuclear medicine techniques.
