The Application of Resting Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Cognitive Judgment of Parkinson

World Neurosurg. 2020 Jun:138:672-679. doi: 10.1016/j.wneu.2020.02.002.

Abstract

Objective: In this study, we considered the treatment of cognitive characteristics of Parkinson's subtypes under resting magnetic resonance imaging scans, and used magnetic resonance imaging to analyze brain activity characteristics of patients with Parkinson's subtypes at rest.

Methods: In this study, patients with neurological Parkinson's disease subtypes were selected: 27 patients in the tremor group, 33 patients in the orthostatic gastric instability group, and 3 patients with mild cognitive impairment and neuropathic Parkinson's disease. Scientific treatment was adopted.

Results: Nineteen patients had mild cognitive dysfunction tremor and unstable posture, and 23 of them had mild cognitive dysfunction. Fifteen healthy controls were subjected to resting state functional magnetic resonance imaging by plane echo imaging sequence scanning. Neurological diseases-Regional consistency analysis of brain regions in patients with Parkinson's disease increased, including the right lower lobe, while regional consistency analysis of brain regions decreased, including the right frontal gyrus, right middle anterior gyrus, and lateral cerebellum.

Conclusions: The experimental results show that the local consistency analysis method based on resting magnetic resonance imaging scan can effectively detect the differences in early neural activity in patients with Parkinson's disease subtype cognitive impairment, and can effectively reflect the brain characteristics of Parkinson's disease.
