The corticolimbic structural covariance network as an early predictive biosignature for cognitive impairment in Parkinson's disease

Abstract Structural covariance assesses similarities in gray matter between brain regions and can be applied to study networks of the brain. In this study, we explored correlations between structural covariance networks (SCNs) and cognitive impairment in Parkinson’s disease patients. 101 PD patients...
