Increased free water in the nucleus basalis of Meynert is associated with worse olfaction in idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
Our study demonstrated that the free water of the NBM was associated with worse olfaction in idiopathic patients with PD. Our study suggests that free water in the NBM has the potential to provide early biomarkers of olfaction dysfunction in idiopathic patients with PD.
