dc.description.abstract | Objectives: Parkinson’s disease (PD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) are neurodegenerative conditions that have overlapping clinical and imaging features, thus making it difficult to distinguish and diagnose PSP from PD. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the optimal value of magnetic resonance planimetry and the parkinsonism index to differentiate between PSP and PD. Methods: In this retrospective study, we recruited a total of 84 patients (27 patients with PSP, 27 patients with PD and 27 normal controls) who underwent MRI brain examinations. For each subject, we calculated the corpus callosum area, midbrain area, pons area, middle cerebellar peduncle (MCP) width and superior cerebellar peduncle (SCP) width on MRI brain images. We also calculated the pons to midbrain area (P/M) ratio, MCP/SCP ratio and magnetic resonance parkinsonism index (MRPI). Results: Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was used to identify the diagnostic value of each biomarker. MRPI had a sensitivity of 70.4%, a specificity of 88.9%, and a diagnostic accuracy of 79.6% with an optimum cut off of 24.3 for differentiating PSP from PD. P/M ratio had a sensitivity of 74.1%, a specificity of 77.8%, and a diagnostic accuracy of 75.9% with an optimal cutoff of 24.3 for differentiating PSP from PD. The MCP/SCP ratio had a sensitivity of 66.7%, a specificity of 77.8%, and an accuracy of 72.2% with an optimal cut off of 4.65 for differentiating PSP from PD. Conclusions: The study revealed that MRPI and P/M ratio are accurate markers for differentiating PSP from PD. The optimal cut-off values derived from our study can help in the early diagnosis of PD. | en_US |
