Lifespan pigmentation changes of the substantia nigra detected by neuromelanin-sensitive MRI (2018)
Journal Article
Xing, Y., Sapuan, A., Dineen, R., & Auer, D. P. (2018). Lifespan pigmentation changes of the substantia nigra detected by neuromelanin-sensitive MRI. Movement Disorders, 33(11), 1792-1799. https://doi.org/10.1002/mds.27502

Background: Neuromelanin is a pigment with strong iron-chelating properties preferentially found in dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra, pars compacta (SNpc). Parkinson's disease is characterized by pronounced, MRI detectable neuromelanin lo... Read More about Lifespan pigmentation changes of the substantia nigra detected by neuromelanin-sensitive MRI.

Limbic grey matter changes in early Parkinson's disease (2017)
Journal Article
Li, X., Xing, Y., Schwarz, S. T., & Auer, D. P. (in press). Limbic grey matter changes in early Parkinson's disease. Human Brain Mapping, https://doi.org/10.1002/hbm.23610

The purpose of this study was to investigate local and network related changes of limbic grey matter in early Parkinson’s disease (PD) and their interrelation with non-motor symptom severity. We applied voxel-based morphometric methods in 538 T1 MRI... Read More about Limbic grey matter changes in early Parkinson's disease.
