For the first time in this geographical area, patients will have the unique opportunity to opt for weekend assessments and treatment. What is Brain SPECT imaging? Dr. Insaf is also specially trained in Brain SPECT imaging, a method of looking at the functioning of the brain and diagnosing emotional conditions based on the results. Brain SPECT has changed many lives for the better by conclusively showing which parts of the brain are functioning poorly, what the primary condition is that needs treatment and whether or not someone has Bipolar illness or just Unipolar depression. It is also used to diagnose conditions such as Alzheimer’s dementia, Post-traumatic stress disorder and the possible emotional consequences of substance abuse. It enables the accurate selection of medications by actually looking at the brain instead of just a clinical estimate based on an interview. This option would be available to patients who would like more comprehensive assessment and to those who have had minimal or no benefit from previous treatments.
