Diagnosis of patients with Parkinson's disease using quantitative susceptibility mapping
Introduction: Parkinson'sdisease isassociated withirondeposition in the brain. The T2-weighted imaging, T2* mapping, R2 mapping and Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping (QSM) are three common methods to evaluating the iron deposition in brain. Among three methods the QSM is more sensitive than others. Few studies have been used QSM for evaluating the iron deposition in the basa...
متن کاملHomocysteine intracerebroventricular injection induces apoptosis in the Substantia Nigra cells and Parkinson like behavior in rat
Parkinson's disease is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system. The motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease result from the death of dopamine-generating cells in the substantia nigra, a region of the midbrain the cause of this cell death is unknown. Homocysteine (Hcy) is a non-protein amino acid. It is a homologue of the amino acid cysteine. The elevated levels of homocysteine in p...
متن کاملQuantitative Susceptibility Mapping in Parkinson's Disease
BACKGROUND Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) and R2* relaxation rate mapping have demonstrated increased iron deposition in the substantia nigra of patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the findings in other subcortical deep gray matter nuclei are converse and the sensitivity of QSM and R2* for morphological changes and their relation to clinical measures of diseas...
متن کاملاثر حفاظتی اپیگالوکاتکین گالات در مدل بیماری پارکینسون القاشده با 6-هیدروکسی دوپامین
Background and Objective: Parkinson's disease is a common movement disorder in elders caused by depletion of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra in midbrain. Due to antioxidant and neuroprotective properties of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), the present study investigated its neuroprotective effect in an experimental model of Parkinson's disease. Materials and Methods: In this exp...
متن کامل9.4 T MR microscopy of the substantia nigra with pathological validation in controls and disease
BACKGROUND The anatomy of the substantia nigra on conventional MRI is controversial. Even using histological techniques it is difficult to delineate with certainty from surrounding structures. We sought to define the anatomy of the SN using high field spin-echo MRI of pathological material in which we could study the anatomy in detail to corroborate our MRI findings in controls and Parkinson's ...
