Globus Pallidus and Pedunculopontine Nucleus Oscillations during Executed and Imagined Gait in Patient with Parkinson’s Disease and Freezing of Gait Symptoms.
Objective: To explore neurophysiological markers of intentional executed and imagined movement in both Globus Pallidus Internus (Gpi) and Pedunculopontine Nucleus (PPN) in patients with Parkinson’s…Increased hippocampal activation in Parkinson’s disease related amnestic mild cognitive impairment
Objective: To assess the functional significance of hippocampal network dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease related amnestic mild cognitive impairment (PD aMCI) using high-resolution functional neuroimaging. Background:…Assessment of substantia nigra degeneration with magnetic resonance and transcranial ultrasonography
Objective: Our objective was to assess both exploration techniques in patients with initial IPD and verify the concordance of the findings, thus positioning them as…Volume analysis and localization of midbrain hyperechogenecities via TCS and MRI
Objective: We are presenting follow-up results on our previous study for 3D volumetric measurements of SN hyper-echogenicities, to differentiate PD patients from healthy controls (HC).…Correlation analysis between dopamine release in striatal sub-regions and motor impairment in Parkinson’s disease subjects
Objective: To investigate correlations between the sub-regional dopamine release (DR) in the striatum of Parkinson’s disease (PD) subjects and sub-components of motor performance evaluated according…Patterns of Striatal DAT Binding Loss in a Progressing Parkinson Disease (PD) Cohort: Four year PPMI Follow-up
Objective: To evaluate within subject striatal changes in dopamine transporter (DAT) binding using 123-I Ioflupane SPECT in PD participants studied over four years in the…Abnormal DaTscan in a case of Anoxic brain injury
Objective: To study the utility of DaTscan in anoxic brain injury. Background: Parkinsonism is a clinical syndrome seen in Parkinson Disease (PD) which includes tremors,…The Role of MRI and DaTscan in Vascular Parkinsonism: A Case Report
Objective: The role of MRI and DAT scan in Vascular Parkinsonism: A Case Report Background: DaTscan has become a widely used clinical tool to help clinicians…Persistent L-Dopa Responsive Hemiparkinsonism After Cryptococcoal Meningoencephalitis in an Immunocompetent Man
Objective: Our objective is to report a case of persistent L-dopa responsive hemiparkinsonism after Cryptococcal meningoencephalitis in an immunocompetent man. Background: Fungal infections of the CNS are…18F-labeled FP-CIT PET Findings in a series of cirrhotic patients with parkinsonism
Objective: Our object is to evaluate the cirrhotic patients with parkinsonism using the presynaptic dopamine transporter (DAT) positron emission tomography (PET) imaging for dopaminergic deficit.…
