To explore early alterations and underlying associations of dopamine levels and microstructure in Parkinson’s Disease (PD), Shang et al use a hybrid positron emission tomography (PET)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) approach in early stage patients and age-matched controls. Their data implies that molecular degeneration mediates the effects of microstructural disorganization on motor dysfunction in the early stages of PD.
