Background and Purpose The correlation between dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging and neuromelanin-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (NM-MRI) in early-stage Parkinson’s disease (PD) has not yet been established. This study aimed to determine the correlation between NM-MRI and DAT positron-emission tomography (PET) in patients with earlystage PD. Methods Fifty drug-naïve patients with early-stage PD who underwent both 0.8-mm isovoxel NM-MRI and DAT PET were enrolled retrospectively. Using four regions of interest (nigrosome 1 and nigrosome 2 [N1 and N2] regions) from a previous study, the contrast ratios (CRs) of 12 regions were measured: N1, N2, flipped N1, flipped N2, combined N1 and N2, and whole substantia nigra pars compacta [SNpc] (all on both sides). The clinically more affected side was separately assessed. The standardized uptake value ratios (SUVRs) were measured in the striatum using DAT PET. A partial correlation analysis was performed between the SUVR and CR measurements. Results CR of the flipped left N1 region was significantly correlated with SUVR of the right posterior putamen (p=0.047), and CR values of the left N1 region, left N2 region, flipped right N1 region, and combined left N1 and N2 regions were significantly correlated with SUVR of the left posterior putamen (p=0.011, 0.038, 0.020, and 0.010, respectively). SUVR of the left anterior putamen was significantly correlated with CR of the left N2 region (p=0.027). On the clinically more affected side, the CR values of the N1 region, combined N1 and N2 regions, and the whole SNpc were significantly correlated with SUVR of the posterior putamen (p=0.001, 0.024, and 0.021, respectively). There were significant correlations between the SUVR of the anterior putamen and the CR values of the N1 region, combined N1 and N2 regions, and whole SNpc (p=0.027, 0.001, and 0.036, respectively). Conclusions This study found that there were significant correlations between CR values in the SNpc on NM-MRI and striatal SUVR values on DAT PET on both sides in early-stage PD.
