Purpose Magnetic resonance parkisonism index (MRPI) has been proposed as a sensitive marker to differentiate progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) from Idiophatic Parkinson's disease (IPD), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and controls (C). The cerebral peduncle angle is also a simple and reproducible measurement in predicting the clinical evolution in PSP patients like MRPI. The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of MRPI and cerebral peduncle angle compared with the other MRI measurements, in distinguishing PSP from IPD, MSA and C groups. Page 2 of 11
Methods and materials Nine PSP patients, 8 MSA patients, 6 IPD patients, and 7 control subjects underwent MRI and, for each patient the pons area-midbrain area ratio (P/M) and MCP width-scp width ratio (MCP/SCP) were used, and an index termed MR parkinsonism index was calculated [(P/M) _ (MCP/SCP)] and also the cerebral peduncle angle, that is, the angle between the two cerebral peduncles was measured. Differences in MR imaging measurements among groups were evaluated with Tukey HSD, Kruskal-Wallis test and Bonferroni correction. Page 3 of 11

Results P/M and MCP/SCP were larger in patients with PSP than in patients in MSA, IPD and C groups. MRPI index value was significantly larger in patients with PSP (median, 17,75; P<.001), than patients with IPD (median, 7.42; P<.001), and control participants (median, 9.73; P <.001). The cerebral peduncle angle measurements were 64.28 (SD, 6.03 ) in PSP patients, 54.79 (SD, 7.43 ) in C group, 55.56 (SD, 1.15 ) in patients with MSA, and 56.75 (SD, 2.07 ) in patients with PD. MRPI and cerebral peduncle angle measurement showed higher accuracy to distinguish PSP from other groups (100% sensitivity). Page 8 of 11
Conclusion MRPI and the cerebral peduncle angle are useful criterion for differentiating patients with PSP from IPD, MSA patients and healthy persons. Page 9 of 11
