Brain tissue echogenicity—implications for substantia nigra studies in parkinsonian patients

Brain tissue echogenicity—implications for substantia nigra studies in parkinsonian patients

The aim of the present study was to assess the origin of the substantia nigra hyperechogenicity in Parkinson disease patients. The cause of hyperechogenicity was tested on an animal model. Fresh porcine brains were injected consecutively with ferritin, apoferritin and water. Then, glioma samples wer...
