Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the value of susceptibility-weighted imaging(SWI) in diagnosis of Parkinson disease (PD) and assessment of disease severity.Methods:Totally 30 PD patients and 30 healthy volunteers underwent SWL The phase values of nuclei in extracorticospinal tract were measured and compared between PD patients and healthy subjects.Results:The phase values of sustantia nigra pars compacta,globus pallidus,putamen in PD group were all significantly lower than those in control group(P＜0.01).The phase values of sustantia nigra pars compacta,globus pallidus and putamen reduced at the early stage in PD group,and then further reduced along with the severity of disease(P＜0.05).Conclusions:SWI has important clinical value in diagnosing PD and evaluating the disease severity.
