Hyperechogenicity of the Substantia Nigra in Parkinson’s Disease: Insights from Two Brothers with Markedly Different Disease Durations
We present clinical features and substantia nigra morphology for two brothers with Parkinson’s disease (PD) aged 60 and 59 years. The brothers were diagnosed at 41 and 50 years of age, respectively. Both patients exhibited an abnormally large area of substantia nigra echogenicity bilaterally when vi...
