| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In Parkinson's disease with visual hallucination (The PD-VH) patients, they showed significant cortical atrophy compared to the PD patients without visual hallucination in the frontal lobe (bilateral dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, left rostral region of the prefrontal cortex, left ventral section of the cingulate cortex), occipital and parietal cortex (bilateral primary visual cortex, and secondary visual cortex including the left inferior occipital gyrus, right lingual cortex, right supramarginal gyrus, and left fusiform gyrus). Significant subcortical atrophic changes were observed in the white matter of the right parahippocampal gyrus, the bilateral posterior part of the cingulate gyrus, the left lingual gyrus, and the right middle occipital gyrus. Visual hallucination in PD can occur due to distinctive neuroanatomical involvement. We also demonstrated that patients with severe olfactory dysfunction showed significant involvement of amygdala, substantia nigra, and insular network.
