Discussion

Longitudinal analysis identifies motor system changes in Parkinson’s disease and prodromal stage, indicating implications for disease tracking.

Iron accumulation correlated with disease progression in motor system, highlighting its role in Parkinson's disease.
Advanced imaging techniques revealed changes in paramagnetic susceptibility in the motor system over time.
Assessment included 54 patients with prodromal Parkinson’s disease symptoms and 52 with early-stage disease.
Findings support the use of susceptibility measurements as potential biomarkers for tracking disease course.

Huang et al. (2025) studied this question.
