Biomarkers in Parkinson's Disease
Biomarkers in Parkinson's disease are biological indicators, such as specific proteins or genetic markers, that can help detect or monitor the disease. They can be found through blood tests, imaging scans, or other methods. These biomarkers assist doctors in diagnosing Parkinson's earlier, tracking how the disease progresses, and evaluating the effectiveness of treatments. While research is ongoing, identifying reliable biomarkers is crucial for improving patient care and developing new therapies.
