Subjects will return to IND for \\[123I\\]ß-CIT and SPECT imaging (scan 2) after 12 weeks of treatment and withdraw from the medication following the scan. Eight to 12 weeks after medication withdrawal, a final \\[123I\\]ß-CIT and SPECT imaging study (scan 3) will be performed at IND. The imaging outcome, striatal uptake of \\[123I\\]ß-CIT, from scan 1 (untreated) and scan 2 (treated with levodopa or pramipexole) will be compared to determine if there is a significant change in the uptake of the marker that may be attributed to levodopa or pramipexole treatment. In addition, scan 3 will be compared to scan 2 to determine the duration and reversibility of any regulatory effect that occurs.
