Assessing brain iron and volume of subcortical nuclei in idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder
Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES: The relationship of iron with cognitive and motor impairment in idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) remains unknown.
METHODS: Twenty-nine (29) patients and 28 healthy controls (HCs) underwent susceptibility weighted imaging and susceptibility mapping. These images were used to evaluate the nigrosome-1 (N1) sign in the substantia nigra (SN), global and regional high-iron (RII) content, and volume of …
