Scientists find volatile compounds in ear wax may help detect Parkinson's disease earlier than traditional methods, offering a potential inexpensive screening tool.

Joy Milne's husband, right, passed away from Parkinson's in June. Before he was diagnosed with the disease, Milne noticed that he was giving off a "musky" odour. (Parkinson's UK in Scotland/Facebook) ...

New research shows dogs can detect Parkinson’s disease with striking accuracy by sniffing patients’ skin swabs. Learn how this breakthrough could help doctors diagnose earlier.

Parkinson's disease occurs most often in people over the age of 60. " We could offer a functional retinal exam from the age of 50," continues Lévesque. " By detecting the disease early, we could ...

One link between agricultural chemicals and Parkinson's disease was discovered by accident. In the late 1980s, attempts to concoct a heroin-like drug resulted in a chemical called MPTP, Fasano said.

Most treatments for Parkinson’s disease (PD) only slow disease progression. Early intervention for the neurological disease that worsens over time is therefore critical to optimize care, but that ...
