The Role of Imaging in Parkinson’s Disease
Check-in is at 12:30 pm and program starts at 1:00 pm.
Join us for a clear, practical conversation about brain imaging and Parkinson’s disease. This program will explain what different imaging tests can and can’t show, why your care team might order a scan, and what you can expect. We will also talk about when scans are necessary for diagnosis and treatment planning versus when they are not, address common questions about tests and results, and share emerging imaging technologies that may shape future PD management.
