Summary

The purpose of this project is to assess the change in dopamine transporter density in Parkinson's disease subjects during a sixty month period including a nine month treatment trial of levodopa. Dopamine transporter will be assessed using \[123I\]ß-CIT SPECT (single photon emission computed tomography) imaging, a marker of dopamine terminal integrity and of clinical disease state.
