While prior neuroimaging studies have identified multiple cognition-associated brain regions in SCA3 patients, research on Papez circuit structural damage (e.g., mammillary bodies (MBs)) remains sparse. Advancements in 7T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology have enabled scanning and quantitative analysis of structures such as the MBs within the Papez circuit.
