Backgroundthe diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) can be challenging, especially in the early stages, albeit its updated and validated clinical criteria. Recent developments on neuroimaging in PD, altogether with its consolidated role of excluding secondary and other neurodegenerative causes of parkinsonism, provide more confidence in the diagnosis across the different stages of the disease. This review highlights current knowledge and major recent advances in magnetic resonance and dopamine transporter imaging in aiding PD diagnosis.ObjectiveThis study aims to review current knowledge about the role of magnetic resonance imaging and neuroimaging of the dopamine transporter in diagnosing Parkinson's disease.MethodsWe performed a non-systematic literature review through the PubMed database, using the keywords "Parkinson", "magnetic resonance imaging", "diffusion tensor", "diffusion-weighted", "neuromelanin", "nigrosome-1", "single-photon emission computed tomography", "dopamine transporter imaging". The search was restricted to articles written in English, published between January 2010 and February 2022.ResultsThe diagnosis of Parkinson's disease remains a clinical diagnosis. However, new neuroimaging biomarkers hold promise for increased diagnostic accuracy, especially in earlier stages of the disease.ConclusionFuture validation of new imaging biomarkers bring the expectation of an increased neuroimaging role in the diagnosis of PD in the following years.
