Transcranial sonography in movement disorders
TL;DR: Transcranial B-mode sonography is a reliable, non-invasive, commonly available, easily applicable, and inexpensive method, which provides new information about the morphology of the brain to help the diagnosis of various movement disorders and could be recommended for general application in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of PD.

Brain parenchyma sonography discriminates Parkinson’s disease and atypical parkinsonian syndromes
TL;DR: Brain parenchyma sonography is a novel and noninvasive method to differentiate highly specifically between IPD and APS and might become a standard investigation in parkinsonian disorders.

Transcranial brain sonography findings in discriminating between parkinsonism and idiopathic Parkinson disease.
Uwe Walter,Dirk Dressler,Thomas Probst,Alexander Wolters,Mazen Abu-Mugheisib,Matthias Wittstock,Reiner Benecke +6 more
TL;DR: Sensitivity, specificity, and predictive value of transcranial brain sonography in indicating an atypical parkinsonian syndrome rather than idiopathic PD in patients with sporadic parkinsonism are studied.

Brain parenchyma sonography detects preclinical parkinsonism.
Uwe Walter,Christine Klein,Ruediger Hilker,Reiner Benecke,Peter P. Pramstaller,Dirk Dressler +5 more
TL;DR: SN hyperechogenicity is suggested as an early marker to detect preclinical parkinsonism in symptomatic and asymptomatic parkin mutation carriers from a large kindred with adult‐onset Parkinsonism.

Swallowing Disturbance Pattern Relates to Brain Lesion Location in Acute Stroke Patients
TL;DR: Distinct acute brain lesion locations result in characteristic swallowing disturbance patterns, and Dysphagic patients with insular stroke appear to have even higher risk of pneumonia suggesting a further associated factor promoting infection in these subjects.
