an apparatus for providing information about Parkinson's disease including an image receiving unit, an image preprocessing unit, an image processing unit, and an image analyzing unit; and a server communicating with the central management unit and/or the Parkinson's disease information providing device; in the system for increasing the clinical trial success probability by selecting a patient group with Parkinson's disease, the image receiving unit, An MRI image obtained by photographing the brains of a plurality of patients who are candidates for clinical trials is obtained, and the image preprocessor pre-processes the obtained MRI image so that the neuromelanin region used as an image biomarker for Parkinson's disease can be observed , The image processing unit analyzes the pre-processed MRI image to classify a first image including the neuromelanin region, detects the neuromelanin region from the classified first image, and the image analyzer includes the detection The central management unit determines information on the patient related to Parkinson's disease by analyzing the neuromelanin region, and provides information on at least one first patient that satisfies the first condition among the plurality of patients based on the patient information. and/or transmitted to the server, wherein the central management unit and/or the server may use the clinical trial results for the first patient to prove the drug efficacy. |
