Neurodegenerative Erkrankungen des zentral-motorischen Systems in der MRT

Zusammenfassung

Neurodegenerative Erkrankungen des zentral-motorischen Systems führen oft nur zu geringen (aber funktionell bedeutsamen) Veränderungen an unterschiedlichen Teilen des Hirnparenchyms. Die MRT ist die sensitivste Methode zur Darstellung solcher Veränderungen. In diesem Beitrag werden verschiedene neurodegenerative Erkrankungen mit ihren wichtigsten klinischen Merkmalen und MRT-Befunden vorgestellt. Differenzialdiagnostisch nützliche Kriterien werden angegeben.

Abstract

Neurodegenerative diseases of the central motor system often lead to discrete but functionally important parenchymal abnormalities in various parts of the brain. MRI is the most sensitive imaging method to detect these abnormalities. Various neurodegenerative diseases are presented with their clinical symptoms and MRI findings. Criteria for differential diagnosis are provided as well.

Key words

Neurodegeneration - Motor system - MR imaging - Parkinson disease - Atypical
