Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page)

It’s depends on doctor’s subjective evaluation to decide kinds of curative medicines and these dosages. Therefore, establishment of an objective index to evaluate a severity of tremor is necessary. In this study the tremor evaluation system by tracing a spiral pattern on the pen tablet was developed.
