Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of this study was to apply the targeted α-synuclein PET study technique to investigate the pathological load and spatial distribution characteristics of α-syn in MSA patients, and to assess its value as a biomarker for diagnostic typing, disease severity, and prognosis in MSA.

No interventions assigned to this group

MSA-P group

Clinically confirmed MSA and clinically probable MSA according to the 2022 MDS MSA diagnostic criteria,and have symptoms of MSA-P (multiple system atrophy-P type) mainly include autonomic dysfunction, Parkinson's syndrome and cerebellar ataxia.

No interventions assigned to this group

healthy control group
