Abstract
The hyperechogenicity of the substania nigra (SN) has been established as a valid finding in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), probably caused by an increased tissue iron concentration in the SN. The application of transcranial sonography (TCS) has been investigated for further echogenic basal ganglia alterations in patients with extrapyramidal movement disorders. Compared to PD, a hyperechogenic nucleus lentiformis (LN) has been reported...
