Cardiac autonomic neuropathy is a frequent complication of diabetes leading to resting tachycardia, postural hypotension, painless myocardial ischaemia, rhythm disturbances and sudden cardiac death. The aim of the study was to evaluate in a diabetic population the sensitivity of two exploration modes of autonomic neuropathy in diabetics: the Ewing tests which are, at present time, the reference method and the (123-I) meta-iodo-benzyl-guanidine (MIBG) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) which evaluates the cardiac sympathetic innervation.
