Synopsis

In this study, a hyperintensity region within substantia nigra is explored in cynomolgus monkeys over a wide range of ages. This region is similar to that of humans, which is often called as a swallow tail sign in healthy subjects. This nigral hyperintensity appears consistently in SMWI, QSM, and T2*-weighted images, particularly in aged animals.
