Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| For patients with cMRT the midbrain diameter and the midbrain to pons ratio will be acquired. For patients with OCT the thickness of retinal layers will be accessed. For patients with tau-PET the regional signal in defined target regions (midbrain, globus pallidus, nucleus dentatus, frontal cortex) will be quantified. The quantification will be performed retrospectively and linked to the acqusition date. Specific software will be used for quantification (i.e. PMOD Technologies, Basel, Switzerland). The primary endpoint consists in correlation of cMRI, OCT, and tau-PET quantification with disease severity for patients with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Quantification of cMRI, OCT, and tau-PET will be compared between patients with probable and possible Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, patients with probable tau-negative Parkinsonian syndrome and healthy controls. | — |
