The findings of this preliminary study support the use of advanced MRI methods based on adiabatic T1ρ, T2ρ RAFF4, QSM, DTI and rsfMRI to characterize the microstructural integrity and functional connectivity of Parkinsons disease (PD) subjects compared to healthy controls. Ultimately these methods may prove useful as a means to track the course of PD and potentially monitor the response to therapies.
