Summary
Slightly larger than that reported by Dr Kim. To be sure, we performed high-resolution (ie, 0.5 Â 0.5 Â 0.9 mm3) imaging (Figure). The first implication on the meaning of the asymmetry of the cell cluster, regardless of whether nigrosome-1 is healthy, is important and should be clarified. Our study discussed the visualization of nigrosome-1 asymmetry using clinical MR imaging.[2] We believe that our views are shared by most authors with considerable experience in clinical MR imaging examinations.
