abstract = {Previous studies have reported substantial involvement of
the noradrenergic system in Parkinson’s disease.
Neuromelanin-sensitive MRI sequences and PET tracers have
become available to visualize the cell bodies in the locus
coeruleus and the density of noradrenergic terminal
transporters.Combining these methods, we investigated the
relationship of neurodegeneration in these distinct
compartments in Parkinson’s disease. We examined 93
subjects (40 healthy controls and 53 Parkinson’s disease
patients) with neuromelanin-sensitive turbo spin-echo MRI
and calculated locus coeruleus-to-pons signal contrasts.
Voxels with the highest intensities were extracted from
published locus coeruleus coordinates transformed to
individual MRI. To also investigate a potential spatial
pattern of locus coeruleus degeneration, we extracted the
highest signal intensities from the rostral, middle, and
caudal third of the locus coeruleus. Additionally, a
study-specific probabilistic map of the locus coeruleus was
created and used to extract mean MRI contrast from the
entire locus coeruleus and each rostro-caudal subdivision.
Locus coeruleus volumes were measured using manual
segmentations.},
