Multiple system atrophy

Abstract: This is a practical guide to diagnosing and managing multiple system atrophy (MSA). We explain the newly published Movement Disorders Society Consensus Diagnostic Criteria, which include new ‘Clinically Established MSA’ and ‘Possible Prodromal MSA’ categories, hopefully reducing time to diagnosis. We then highlight the key clinical features of MSA to aid diagnosis. We include a list of MSA mimics with suggested methods of differentiation from MSA. Lastly, we discuss practical symptom management in people livin… Show more

“…[19][20][21] Therefore, measurements of postvoid bladder residual volume and lying/standing blood pressure are essential. 22 Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard imaging technique for MSA and can reveal numerous abnormalities, including atrophy of various brain regions. [23][24][25][26] Diffusion-weighted imaging, magnetic resonance volumetry, and functional brain MRI are other valuable techniques for diagnosing and monitoring MSA.…”
