Default This relates to...

The diagnosis of "parkinsonism". Vicky, shouldn't these signs be readily seen on MRI or CT scanning of the brain, which most of us get "to rule out tumors" but "cannot image PD" as we are told by our doctors before we get a SPECT or an F-Dopa PET scan to further clinch a "PD dx"?
Maybe they can see more than than they are looking for by using the preliminary scanning tools, thigs that woud implicate damage taht is ultimately connected with "parkinsonism". cs
