| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Useful and simple diagnosis of Parkinson's disease does not yet exist. The definitive diagnosis is made by autopsy, the presence of Lewy bodies, which are characteristic of Parkinson's disease, is important. We have devised a method of detecting early changes that occur in connection with the formation of Lewy bodies in Parkinson's disease patient’s cerebrospinal fluid. In the present study, since we showed the result that our method could diagnose the Parkinson's disease, we aim to put the method into practical use in 5 to 10 years.
