## Abstract ## Background: Combined measurements on conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), such as midbrain area/pons area or magnetic resonance parkinsonism index (MRPI) (pons area/midbrain area Γ middle cerebellar peduncle width/superior cerebellar peduncle width), have been proposed as
## Abstract Using magnetic resonance (MR) planimetry, both the midbrainβtoβpontine area ratio (m/pβratio) and the MR parkinsonism index (MRPI) have been shown to assist in the differential diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) from Parkinson's disease (PD) and the Parkinson variant of m
