Specificity of transcranial sonography in parkinson spectrum disorders in comparison to degenerative cognitive syndromes

K Laučkaitė, D Rastenytė, D Šurkienė, A Vaitkus… - BMC neurology, 2012 - Springer
Background Hyperechogenicity of the substantia nigra (SN+), detected by transcranial
sonography (TCS), was reported as a characteristic finding in Parkinson's disease (PD), with
high diagnostic accuracy values, when compared mainly to healthy controls or essential
tremor (ET) group. However, some data is accumulating that the SN+ could be detected in
other neurodegenerative and even in non-neurodegenerative disorders too. Our aim was to
estimate the diagnostic accuracy of TCS, mainly focusing on the specificity point, when …
