In vivo mapping of nigro-striatal dopamine transporter (DAT) availability in early Parkinson´s disease patients using [18F]FE-PE2I and high-resolution positron emission tomography.
Objective: The objective of the present work was to evaluate in vivo with high resolution positron emission tomography (PET), the relative loss of the dopamine…Non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease and putamen dopamine transporter uptake (DaTscan) uptake: a survey of 85 patients
Objective: We addressed association between 30 non-motor symptoms (NMS) (using the validated Parkinson’s disease (PD) NMS Scale (NMSS)), and DaTscan putamen uptake ratios as part…Clinical characteristics of scan without evidence of dopaminergic deficits (SWEDDs) in Japan.
Objective: To examine the clinical characteristics of SWEDDs and to compare to that of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Patients with SWEDDs are defined as clinically…Brain PET metabolic substrate of Impulse Control Disorders in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: The aim of this study was to describe the cerebral metabolic PET substrate and related connectivity changes in Parkinson's disease patients with impulse control…Longitudinal Cortical Thickness Changes in GBA-Positive Relative to GBA-negative Parkinson’s Disease Patients with Hemiparkinsonism
Objective: This study investigated the longitudinal changes of the cortical grey matter in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with hemiparkinsonism, with (GBA-positive) and without (GBA-negative) glucocerebrosidase…Cognitive changes and cortical thinning evolution of parkinson’s disease patients: 4-year-follow up.
Objective: The aim of the study was to investigate differences in the progression of cognitive decline and cortical thinning evolution in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients…Signal intensity of cerebral gyri in corticobasal degeneration on phase difference enhanced MR images: Comparison with progressive supranuclear palsy and Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We evaluated the signal intensity of the cerebral gyri (CG) on phase difference enhanced imaging (PADRE) for the patients with corticobasal degeneration (CBD), progressive…EEG Shows Subclinical Motor Preparation Deficits in Parkinson’s Disease Patients with Freezing of Gait During Locomotion
Objective: Investigate motor preparation and cognition in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with and without freezing of gait (FOG) while sitting and stepping with EEG. Background:…Connectivity patterns in frontal cognitive regions in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Evaluate the changes in brain connectivity between Parkinson’s disease (PD) with and without mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Background: Up to 40% of PD patients…Dopamine depletion impairs gait automaticity by altering cortico-striatal and cerebellar processing in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Investigating the role of dopaminergic medication on the neural mechanisms underlying lower limb motor automaticity during fMRI in 23 patients with PD that were…
