Ivan Rektor, MD, CSc, Masaryk University, Brno, Czech Republic, discusses a study evaluating hippocampal volume changes in Parkinson’s disease patients and the association between the hippocampus-to-cortex volume (HV:CTV) ratio and cognitive function outcomes. Results showed that the HV:CTV ratio reduction is accelerated in Parkinson’s disease patients, and the HV:CTV ratio was associated with impaired processing speed. This interview took place at the AD/PD™ 2022 Conference in Barcelona, Spain.
