Abstract

In this article, we review the state of the art knowledge concerning structural and functional imaging in multiple system atrophy (MSA). The relative value of imaging modalities in the differential diagnosis of MSA from other parkinsonian syndromes is debated. It is concluded that, although neuroimaging biomarkers provide valuable supportive data alongside clinical assessments, it is not possible to use them as surrogate markers.

Multiple system atrophy (MSA), a sporadic progressive synucleinopathy of advanced age, is separated into two clinic opathological subtypes: MSA-P (striatonigral degeneration [SND]) with predominant parkinsonian features and MSA-C (olivopontocerebellar atrophy [OPCA]) with predominant cerebellar atax

It is clinically important, to distinguish between idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) not only because of the implications for prognosis but also because urinary incontinence is often an early troublesome feature of MSA and by making the correct neurological diagn
