Abstract

Recent years have witnessed an increasing interest in digital health technology (DHT) within neurology (sensors, devices, specific smartphone apps) and specifically in Parkinson's disease (PD). Quantitative measures derived from digital technology have the potential to close the gap between the different assessment properties providing measures that can quantitatively and continuously monitor PD symptoms outside the clinics, that are important to patients and reflect a pathological process or response to treatment (biomarker). This chapter reviews the current state of the field and necessary next steps to position DHT as clinically and regulatory accepted outcomes in PD.
