Putamen Atrophy Is a Possible Clinical Evaluation Index for Parkinson’s Disease Using Human Brain Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Parkinson’s disease is characterized by motor dysfunction caused by functional deterioration of the substantia nigra. Lower putamen volume (i.e., putamen atrophy) may be an important clinical indicator of motor dysfunction and neurological symptoms, such as autonomic dysfunction, in patients with Pa...
