Brain Structure and Function: There are abnormalities in the gray matter network of early Parkinson's patients
Time of Update: 2021-08-02
In addition, since recent studies have shown that connective measurements have diagnostic value in brain diseases, it is assumed that the GM network matrix and graph-based metrics will distinguish PD patients from HC and different motor subtypes at the individual level with significant accuracy .
