Figure 1

Volume change comparison between PD patients with (pRBD) and without (noRBD) probable RBD in the brainstem.

Thresholded t maps (at P < 0.05 corrected for multiple comparisons) superimposed onto Montreal Neurological Institute 152 brain imaging template (i.e., a normalized average of 152 3D T1-weighted MRI scans from a normative adult population). The color-coded bar represents t values and the display is thresholded at P < 0.05. Left, sagittal plane showing smaller volume in the pontomesencephalic tegmentum (PMT) (arrow), the ventral medulla (arrow head) and base of pons (dashed arrow). Right, coronal plane showing the bilateral smaller volume in the PMT area (arrow).
