In the current study, we have measured the gender based
changes in the T1ρ relaxation time in
medial-temporal-lobe and hippocampus in brain of
Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Larger changes in T1ρ
relaxation in female PD patients were observed compared
to male PD patients. This change in T1ρ might be
attributed to the physiological and genomic differences
between male and female, and may provide a clinical
measure to differentiate the severity of disease and
outcome of the treatment responses among gender.
