Multimodal magnetic resonance imaging studies on non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease by Weimin Qi, Xiaoyan Niu, Xiuping Zhan, Yazhou Ren, Jianhang He, Jianxia Li, Xiaolin Hou, Haining Li

“…Conclusion: Occipital hypoperfusion and cortical atrophy in the left inferior temporal gyrus may serve as novel imaging biomarkers for PD and are associated with sleep disturbances and cognitive impairment in PD patients. Extensive iron deposition in the bilateral cerebral cortex of PD patients may be a contributing factor to non-motor symptoms such as sleep disturbances and fatigue. …”
