In early stages of Parkinson's disease (PD) clinical symptoms are often very subtle. Therefore additional instrumental and biochemical methods could be useful to confirm the diagnosis. Firstly, clinical signs could be detected in a more sensitive way by using kinesiologic methods e.g. the Motor Performance Test. Secondly, imaging techniques like Positron Emission Tomography are valuable tools. Up to now, specific biochemical markers for early PD are not available. Field studies are needed to validate the sensitivity of different instrumental and biochemical methods for early diagnosis in PD.
在帕金森病（PD）的早期阶段，临床症状往往非常细微。因此，额外的仪器检查和生化方法可能有助于确诊。首先，通过运动学方法，如运动表现测试，可以更敏感地检测到临床体征。其次，正电子发射断层扫描等成像技术是有价值的工具。到目前为止，尚无早期帕金森病的特异性生化标志物。需要进行实地研究来验证不同仪器检查和生化方法对帕金森病早期诊断的敏感性。
