AI and Parkinson's Disease

10/3/2021

 

Blog Author: Archita Khaire

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by damage to dopamine-producing neurons in the midbrain. Dopamine neurons originate in the midbrain and are found in either the substantia nigra or the ventral tegmental area, which is located adjacent to the substantia nigra.
When the neurons in the substantia nigra are damaged in large numbers, the loss of dopamine prevents normal function in the basal ganglia and causes Parkinson's disease's motor symptoms: tremor, rigidity, impaired balance, and loss of spontaneous movement.
