To assess whether gray matter (GM) atrophy between 2 Parkinson disease (PD) subtypes: the tremor dominant (TD) subtype and the postural instability gait difficulty (PIGD), we used multivariate pattern classification analysis (MVPA) on cortical thickness in people with Parkinsons. Our result show MVPA is sensitive to discriminate the patterns of GM loss of these two subtypes, which suggest GM atrophy may provide useful information for classification different motor subgroup of PD.
