Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP): Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) : Advances in Diagnosis and Treatment Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) is a rare and progressive neurological disorder that presents complex challenges in both diagnosis and management. Recent advancements in the understanding of PSP have led to improved diagnostic techniques and potential therapeutic interventions. This article explores these advances and their impact on the diagnosis and treatment of PSP. Advances in Diagnosis: 1. Biomarkers: Researchers have identified potential biomarkers associated with PSP, such as specific proteins in cerebrospinal fluid and imaging markers. These biomarkers can aid in early diagnosis and provide a more definitive confirmation of the disease. 2. Imaging Techniques: Advanced neuroimaging techniques, including positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), now enable more accurate visualization of brain structures affected by PSP. Distinctive patterns of brain atrophy and dysfunct...
