Early‐stage Parkinson's disease: Abnormal nigrosome 1 and 2 revealed by a voxelwise analysis of neuromelanin‐sensitive MRI
Previous pathologic studies evaluated the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) of a limited number of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) patients with relatively longer disease durations. Therefore, it remains unknown which region of the SNpc is most significantly affected in early‐stage IPD...

description | Previous pathologic studies evaluated the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) of a limited number of idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) patients with relatively longer disease durations. Therefore, it remains unknown which region of the SNpc is most significantly affected in early‐stage IPD. We hypothesized that a voxelwise analysis of thin‐section neuromelanin‐sensitive MRI (NM‐MRI) may help determine the significantly affected regions of the SNpc in early‐stage IPD and localize these areas in each nigrosome on high‐spatial‐resolution susceptibility map‐weighted imaging (SMwI). Ninety‐six healthy subjects and 50 early‐stage IPD patients underwent both a 0.8 × 0.8 × 0.8 mm(3) NM‐MRI and a 0.5 × 0.5 × 1.0 mm(3) multi‐echo gradient‐recalled echo imaging for SMwI. Both NM‐MRI and SMwI templates were created by using image data from the 96 healthy subjects. Permutation‐based nonparametric tests were conducted to investigate spatial differences between the two groups in NM‐MRI, and the results were displayed on both NM‐MRI and SMwI templates. The posterolateral and anteromedial regions of the SNpc in NM‐MRI were significantly different between the two groups, corresponding to the nigrosome 1 and nigrosome 2 regions, respectively, on the SMwI template. There were the areas of significant spatial difference in the hypointense SN on SMwI between early‐stage IPD patients and healthy subjects. These areas on SMwI were slightly greater than those on NM‐MRI, including the areas showing group difference on NM‐MRI. Our voxelwise analysis of NM‐MRI suggests that two regions (nigrosome 1 and nigrosome 2) of the SNpc are separately affected in early‐stage IPD. |
