Cuneus/precuneus as a central hub for brain functional connectivity of mild cognitive impairment in idiopathic REM sleep behavior patients
Brain imaging in RBD.
Neuroimaging studies can provide in vivo insights to the early structural and functional brain changes in patients with idiopathic RBD (iRBD) and may help give a prognosis of disease course. This chapter summarizes the major findings of neuroimaging studies in iRBD, a specific prodromal stage of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and other α-synucleinopathies. Molecular imaging techniques, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and transcranial sonography (TCS) are all discussed
