The term amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) comprises a heterogeneous group of fatal
neurodegenerative disorders of largely unknown etiology characterized by the upper motor …

Background: With the advances in neuroimaging in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), it
has been speculated that multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is capable to …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to investigate the differences in motor cortex
susceptibility among patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), cerebrovascular …

Structural neuroimaging studies of white matter (WM) volume in amyotrophic lateral
sclerosis (ALS) using voxel-based morphometry (VBM) have yielded inconsistent findings …

Purpose To assess the prevalence and characteristics of motor cortex hypointensity on 3-T
susceptibility-weighted imaging (SWI) in patients with cognitive impairment and examine its …

Abstract Introduction In Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, magnetic resonance (MR)
imaging studies using phase difference enhanced imaging (PADRE) and susceptibility …

There is no reliable objective indicator for upper motor neuron dysfunction in amyotrophic
lateral sclerosis (ALS). To determine the clinical significance and potential utility of magnetic …

Purpose The typical MRI findings in corticobasal degeneration (CBD), which have been
described in previous reports, may be non-specific. We evaluated cerebral gyri (CG) using …

Background and objective: Phase difference enhanced imaging (PADRE), a new phase-
related MRI technique, can enhance both paramagnetic and diamagnetic substances, and …

Background In amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), motor neurons in the brainstem markedly
deplete, whereas sensory neurons are less severely affected. Purpose To determine …
