Abstract

AIM: Parkinson's disease (PD) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) present similar clinical symptoms, but their treatment options and clinical prognosis differ significantly. Therefore, we aimed to discriminate between PD and PSP based on multi-level indices of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI) via the machine learning approach.
