A non-invasive olfactory bulb measure dissociates Parkinson’s patients from healthy controls and discloses disease duration
Abstract Olfactory dysfunction is a prevalent non-motor symptom of Parkinson’s disease (PD). This dysfunction is a result of neurodegeneration within the olfactory bulb (OB), the first processing area of the central olfactory system, and commonly precedes the characteristic motor symptoms in PD by s...

Abstract Olfactory dysfunction is a prevalent non-motor symptom of Parkinson’s disease (PD).

Functional measurements of the OB could therefore potentially be used as an early biomarker for PD. Here, we used a non-invasive method, so-called electrobulbogram (EBG), to measure OB function in PD and age-matched healthy controls to assess whether EBG measures can dissociate PDs from controls.
