The diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease (PD) is based on clinical criteria but misdiagnosis is as high as 25% of cases as confirmed by anatomic-pathological studies. Since the introduction of in vivo molecular imaging techniques using Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET), the diagnosis of PD became more reliable by assessing dopaminergic a…
Since the XIX century until today in vivo diagnosis of Parkinson & acute;s Disease (PD) relies solely on clinical criteria. In many situations, however, even expert neurologists may have difficulty in making PD diagnosis since other conditions can share clinical features that resembles PD: Essential tremor, vascular parkinsonism, parkinsonism associated to hydrocephalus, drug-induced park…
