This study revealed both the brain volumetric and relaxometric characteristics from synthetic MRI technique in Parkinson's disease (PD). Significantly differences were found in fraction of gray matter (GM), white matter (WM) and myelin. We also observed significantly differences in WM T1 value, GM and CSF proton density value. Hence Synthetic MRI might be a quantitative tool for clinical diagnosis of PD.
