Several previously described abnormalities in Parkinson's Disease mesoscopic, cerebral connectivity were found to be reversed 1 month after MR-guided Focused Ultrasound pallidotomy.
Figure 2. Changes in Regional Homogeneity (ReHo) 1 Month following MRgFUS Pallidotomy. Warm colors indicate increases in ReHo while cool colors indicate decreases in ReHo. Identified clusters are shown in the associated tables and stars (*) next to cluster names indicate reversals of known ReHo abnormalities in Parkinson's Disease.
Figure 3. Correlations between changes in Regional Homogeneity (ReHo) and changes in Behavioral Outcomes 1 Month following MRgFUS Pallidotomy. Warm colors indicate positive correlations between Reho and the relevant test while cool colors indicate a negative correlation. Identified clusters are shown in the associated tables and stars (*) next to cluster names indicate reversals of known ReHo abnormalities in Parkinson's Disease.
