NEURONAL NETWORK UNDERLYING DYSPHAGIA IN PARKINSON’S DISEASE
Objective: We aimed to investigate whether chewing and swallowing difficulties are associated with changes in cortical thickness. Background: Chewing and swallowing difficulties are a common…Are there associations between altered brain connectivity and dopaminergic medication in Parkinson’s disease patients with freezing of gait?
Objective: The purpose of this study is to assess how brain connectivity is altered in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with freezing of gait (FOG), and…Freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease: a review of current neuroimaging evidence for the development of effective therapies
Objective: The objective of this review is to summarize the results of brain imaging studies assessing freezing of gait (FOG) and to provide new ideas…Progression of dopaminergic and serotonergic dysfunction related to motor and nonmotor manifestations in apathetic and non-apathetic parkinsonian patients: a 4-year longitudinal double-tracer PET study
Objective: To investigate the progression of dopaminergic and serotonergic dysfunction and their relation to motor and nonmotor impairment in parkinsonian patients with or without apathy,…Visual subnetwork dysfunction in Parkinson’s patients with primary visual hallucinations
Objective: To evaluate impairments in the visual subnetwork in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with psychosis using BOLD fMRI Background: Psychosis occurs in 20-70% of patients…Correlating subcortical structure and function in idiopathic Parkinson’s disease: A cross-sectional morphometric and [18F]-DOPA PET study
Objective: To investigate whether the local geometric changes in the subcortical structures of patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease correlate with dopaminergic terminal functional integrity within…Could we optimize the stimulation parameters setting of directional leads with a patient-specific imaging software in implanted parkinsonian patients?
Objective: Deep brain stimulation in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) is routinely proposed to parkinsonian patients. Introduction of directional leads offer more flexibility for programming but…In vivo increased striatal iron deposition in Parkinson’s Disease Dementia and Dementia with Lewy Body
Objective: To evaluate iron deposition with susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) MRI in the basal ganglia of patients affected by Parkinson’s Disease Dementia (PDD) and Dementia…Potential involvement of the caudate nucleus in GBA-associated Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Multimodal functional assessment of striatocortical loop integrity in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients with and without GBA variants Background: Biallelic GBA mutations provoke the lysosomal…Micro structural Changes in Substantia Nigra are associated with Severity of Parkinson’s Disease.
Objective: The aim of this study was to apply diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) to evaluate atrophy of the Substantia Nigra pars compacta (SNc), the pathological…
