Can an MRI or CAT SCAN pick up the fact that one has Parkinson's Disease
or is the diagnose made entirely on the basis of symptoms?
 
A friend's mother has started to exhibit jerky movements and is getting
confused.  She has had an MRI and CAT SCAN and nothing has been
concluded.  Could she have Parkinson's Disease?
 
I think they have taken her to a neurologist but Parkinson's was not
mentioned.
