L-Dopa Responsiveness is Correlated to Fluorodeoxyglucose Metabolism and Dopamine Transporter Availability in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: We aim to explore if the degree of l-dopa responsiveness would be correlated to metabolism level in specific brain areas by using 18F-FDG and…Unilateral abnormal dopamine transporter (DaT) scans: Early indicator of Parkinson’s disease and degenerative Parkinsonism
Objective: In this study, we aimed to determine the relevance of unilateral abnormal dopamine transporter (DaT) scans in patients presenting with clinically uncertain Parkinsonian syndromes…Amyloid PET and cognition in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between cerebral amyloid accumulation and cognition in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: The neuropathology underlying the development of dementia in Parkinson’s…Patterns of rhythmic single unit activity of the subthalamic nucleus in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The study of rhythmic neuronal activity is of great interest as they may have implications for pathophysiological mechanisms of PD. The aim of this…Multi-echo GRE and DTI MR imaging of the Substantia Nigra in early Parkinson’s disease: A pilot 1-year prospective controlled study
Objective: To assess the sensitivity of multi-echo GRE and DTI MR imaging to changes in Substantia Nigra (SN) in early Parkinson’s disease (PD) Background: In…Subthalamic theta oscillations in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Identifying the effect of dopamine on subthalamic theta oscillations in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Understanding the underlying electrophysiological alterations in PD is essential for…Executive Function and Frontoparietal Network Association in Freezing of Gait
Objective: To investigate the relationship between executive function and frontoparietal network (FPN) functional connectivity in Parkinson’s disease patients with freezing of gait (PD-FOG). Background: FPN…Longitudinal MRI to predict cognitive impairment in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine the value of MRI metrics in predicting global cognitive ability in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Progressive cognitive impairment is a dominant feature…Feasibility aspects of evaluating neuroplastic changes after balance training in Parkinson´s disease: A pilot randomised controlled trial
Objective: The aim of this pilot study was to explore trial design and to assess feasibility and acceptability of the data collection methods and the…Microstructural Changes in Normal Appearing White Matter in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Correlate with Motor, Tremor, and Neuropsychiatric Scores
Objective: To determine if microstructural changes in the normal appearing white matter of PD are associated with clinical manifestations of disease. Background: White matter (WM)…
