- Title
Multimodality MR imaging techniques for detecting biomarkers for diagnosis and follow-up of neurodegenerative diseases.

- Abstract
Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging has been commonly used in diagnosis and follow-up of neurodegenerative diseases. Multimodality MR imaging provides chemical, functional and anatomical information of the underlying tissue of interest. MR spectroscopic imaging provides noninvasive information regarding the biochemistry of the tissue. Arterial spin labeling MR imaging is used to acquire cerebral blood flow and arterial blood volume maps without the need of using contrast agents. Resting state functional MR imaging provides brain activation connectivity information during rest. Diffusion MR imaging tracks the water movement along the white matter tracts, providing diffusivity and anisotropy information of water movement. In this talk, information will be shared regarding multimodality MR imaging techniques and biomarkers of especially mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease.
