Brain iron in progressive supranuclear palsy: clinical, magnetic resonance imaging, and neuropathological findings
Abstract
A patient with progressive supranuclear palsy demonstrated a region- specific decrease in T2 signal during high-field-strength brain magnetic resonance imaging. At autopsy the T2-signal hypointensity was found to correspond topographically to increased deposition of ferric iron. The potential clinical, radiologic, and pathophysiologic implications of these findings are discussed.
