Current and Emerging Methods to Aid Parkinson's Diagnosis
Wellness Wednesday
Making an accurate diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease, particularly in its early stages, can be difficult. This webinar will review the newest criteria for diagnosing Parkinson’s disease based on the current understanding of PD. We will also look at emerging technology and advances in research that are helping doctors make a diagnosis or distinguish between Parkinson’s and other similar conditions.
