Brain perfusion abnormalities in Alzheimer's disease: comparison between patients with focal temporal lobe dysfunction and patients with diffuse cognitive impairment

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) showing a selective impairment of episodic and semantic memory have recently been classified as affected by focal temporal lobe dysfunction (FTLD) and considered as a distinct subgroup of patients affected by a particular form of AD. The aim was to compare the cerebral perfusion of patients with AD with FTLD and patients with AD with the more typical profile of diffuse cognitive impairment (dAD).
