Alucinações visuais, discinesias e sintomas depressivos na doença de parkinson ...
Gama, Rômulo LopesPatients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) were clinically examined and specific symptoms related to sleep - walking cycle, visual hallucinati ons, dyskinesias, depressive symptoms were studied. Cerebral changes were evaluated using morphometric analysis voxel - by - voxel obtained by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). PD patients (N = 100, 67% male), aged from 45 to 80 years were evaluated regarding sleep disorders...

Gama, Rômulo Lopes; Bruin, Veralice Meireles Sales; Távora, Daniel Gurgel Fernandes; Duran, Fábio L.S.; Bittencourt, Lia; Tufik, SergioThe objective is to evaluate clinical characteristics and cerebral alterations in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with diurnal visual hallucinations (VHs). Assessment was performed using magnetic resonance image (MRI) and voxel-based morphometry (VBM). Thirty-nine patients with PD (53.8%) and ten controls were studied.

Síndromes parkinsonianas : diagnóstico diferencial por ressonância magnética e ...
Gama, Rômulo LopesWe describe two studies, as follows: one concerns the role of cerebral morphometry as evaluated by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the differential diagnosis of the parkinsonian syndromes; the other is about sleep alterations and the relationship with MRI changes in these syndromes. MRI measures can be useful for differential diagnosis between Parkinson disease (PD), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and...
