Abstract:Background Parkinson's disease (PD) has been regarded as a disconnection syndrome with functional and structural disturbances. However, as the anatomic determinants, the structural disconnections in PD have yet to be fully elucidated. Purpose To non-invasively construct structural networks based on microstructural complexity and to further investigate their potential topological abnormalities in PD given the technical superiority of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI) to the quantification of microstructure.
