## Abstract Transcranial sonography (TCS) reveals abnormal spatial extension of substantia nigra (SN) echogenicity in a high proportion of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). It has been proposed that this abnormality represents a structural trait that is mechanistically distinct from degenerat
