الوصف: Background: The etiology and pathogenesis of transient global amnesia, a clinical syndrome during which new information cannot be retained while consciousness and other higher cognitive functions are still preserved, is still unknown. Imaging studies, including MRI, diffusion weighted MRI, MR spectrocopy and single-photon emission CT (SPECT) have shown inconsistent results but were rarely combined in a single patient. Case Report: We report on a patient in whom those different imaging modalities were performed during a period of transient global amnesia. All imaging modalities demonstrated normal results. Conclusion: The normal results underline that the etiology and pathogenesis of transient global amnesia still remains unclarified and can at least in this case not be attributed to changes in brain perfusion or a focal ischemia as proposed in previous studies.
