Single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) with 123I-iodobenzamide (123I-IBZM) was used to study 22 chronic schizophrenic patients. The patients, who were receiving maintenance therapy with typical neuroleptics, had not shown any significant improvement since their admission to the hospital. Basal ganglia/frontal cortex ratios of the uptake of 123I-IBZM did not show significant differences on the basis of neuroleptic dosage in chlorpromazine equivalents. There were, however, significant differences in 123I-IBZM uptake in the basal ganglia among patients characterized by negative, mixed, and positive symptoms of schizophrenia. Although only a small number of patients had shown a positive response to treatment by the time of discharge, D2 receptor blockade was significantly higher in responders than in nonresponders. In addition, there was an inverse correlation between reduced activation as measured by the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale and the basal ganglia/frontal cortex ratio. These findings suggest a complex pathogenetic link between the blockade of dopamine D2 receptors and psychopathology in chronic schizophrenic patients. SPECT studies with 123I-IBZM appear to have prognostic value in identifying chronic schizophrenic patients who respond poorly to neuroleptic treatment.
