Abstract
A simple and effective method is described to quantify involuntary movements. The method is based on the Doppler radar principle. Reproducibility of the method is demonstrated in a group of patients with Huntington's chorea and Tardive Dyskinesia. It is shown that the method correlates with clinical assessments, but is preferable because of its objectivity and simplicity.Keywords
