Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and Multiple-System Atrophy are entities within the spectrum of atypical parkinsonism. The role of imaging methods in the diagnosis and differentiation between PSP and MSA is limited and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is currently used as a reference modality. In this study, the authors examined a group of patients with atypical parkinsonism using a 1.5 T MRI system and aimed to find simple and repeatable measurements that may be useful to distinguish between these diseases. The results of the study indicate that the maximal width of the frontal horns of the lateral ventricles and Evans' Index may, to some extent, be useful as basic and simple measurements in the diagnostic imaging of patients with atypical parkinsonism.
