    Volume analysis and localization of midbrain hyperechogenecities via TCS and MRI

    A. Plate, S.-A. Ahmadi, K. Boetzel (Munich, Germany)

    Objective: We are presenting follow-up results on our previous study for 3D volumetric measurements of SN hyper-echogenicities, to differentiate PD patients from healthy controls (HC).…

    Substantia nigra hyperechogenicity in male methamphetamine users

    G. Todd, V. Pearson-Dennett, B. Collie, J. White (Adelaide, Australia)

    Objective: To investigate the effect of sex on substantia nigra (SN) echogenicity in young-to-middle aged adults with a history of methamphetamine use. Background: The sonographic…

    May substantia nigra volume asymmetry be an indicator of motor asymmetry in Parkinson’s disease? A retrospective analysis

    N.F. Durmaz, M. Yorubulut, C.M. Akbostanci (Ankara, Turkey)

    Objective: We investigated whether smaller substantia nigra is associated with worse parkinsonism on the corresponding contralateral side. Background: Degeneration of dopaminergic cells and morphologic changes…
