The article provides an overview of diagnostic options and basic differential diagnostic approaches for extrapyramidal diseasesusing magnetic resonance imaging. It aims at distinguishing between Parkinson’s disease and atypical parkinsonian syndromesas well as describes the characteristic presentation of Huntington’s disease and Wilson’s disease on magnetic resonance imaging.Moreover, chronic subdural haematoma and normal pressure hydrocephalus are discussed as part of a broader differential diagnosis.

Keywords: magnetic resonance imaging (MR), computed tomography (CT), Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, hydrocephalus.
