Abstract
DAT-SPECT, is a well-established procedure for distinguishing drug-induced parkinsonism from Parkinson’s disease (PD). We investigated the usefulness of blink reflex recovery cycle (BRrc) and of electromyographic parameters of resting tremor for the differentiation of patients with drug-induced parkinsonism with resting tremor (rDIP) from those with resting tremor due to PD.
