DOI: 10.4103/aian.aian_100_22
Abstract: Introduction: Vascular Parkinsonism (VaP) is characterized by symmetric, predominantly lower limb bradykinesia and rigidity and no significant improvement with levodopa. We aimed to describe the clinical and radiological features of patients with VaP and the… read more here.
