Enhanced functional connectivity between putamen and supplementary motor area in Parkinson's disease patients.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a surprisingly heterogeneous disorder with symptoms including resting tremor, bradykinesia and rigidity. PD has been associated with abnormal task related brain activation in sensory and motor regions as well as reward related network. Although corticostriatal skelet...

Enhanced functional connectivity between putamen and supplementary motor area in Parkinson's disease patients.
