A reduction in the area of the substantia nigra (SN) has been shown in patients with Parkinson disease. The substantia nigra is anteroinferolateral to the red nucleus, and it is important to precisely locate its true anatomic location to accurately measure SN area. Our purpose was to determine the exact location of the substantia nigra by correlating imaging and anatomic findings. We also attempted to quantitate SN area in patients with Parkinson disease compared with that in healthy control subjects on the basis of proton density-weighted spin-echo (SE) and fast short inversion time inversion-recovery (STIR) MR imaging findings.
