The Characteristics of Tremor Motion Help Identify Parkinson's Disease and Multiple System Atrophy

Conclusion: Our study confirmed that several tremor characteristics, including the dominant tremor frequency and the occurrence rate in different conditions, help detect PD and MSA. The presence of harmonics may serve as a novel marker to help distinguish PD from MSA with high sensitivity and specificity.
