Signal intensity of cerebral gyri in corticobasal syndrome on phase difference enhanced magnetic resonance images: Comparison of progressive supranuclear palsy and Parkinson's disease

We evaluated cerebral gyri (CG) on phase difference enhanced imaging (PADRE) of corticobasal syndrome (CBS), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and Parkinson's disease (PD) patients to determine whether it is possible to discriminate among them on an individual basis. Two radiologists reviewed appearance of the normal CG and that of CBS patients on PADRE, and deviations from the appearance of the normal CG were recorded. Next, based on the CG abnormalities, two other reviewers reviewed PADRE images from 12 CBS, 14 PSP, and 30 PD patients.
