Samsung Medical AI: Radiation-Free MRI Detects Parkinson’s Risk
Researchers from the Samsung Medical Center and Sejong Chungnam National University Hospital have introduced a new radiation-free magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique. The diagnostic approach is designed to detect early Parkinson’s disease risk in individuals exhibiting specific sleep disorders. Mechanism and Diagnostic Advantages The non-invasive method utilizes neuromelanin-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (NM-MRI) to identify structural damage in dopaminergic neurons. By measuring the volume and signal intensity of neuromelanin pigments, the […]
