Extending the phenotypic spectrum assessed by the CDR plus NACC FTLD in genetic...
Genetic FTD Initiative (GENFI); Samra, Kiran; Peakman, Georgia; MacDougall, Amy M.; Bouzigues, Arabella; Greaves, Caroline V.; Convery, Rhian S.INTRODUCTION: We aimed to expand the range of the frontotemporal dementia (FTD) phenotypes assessed by the Clinical Dementia Rating Dementia Staging Instrument plus National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center Behavior and Language Domains (CDR plus NACC FTLD). METHODS: Neuropsychiatric and motor domains were added to the standard CDR plus NACC FTLD generating a new CDR plus NACC FTLD-NM scale. This was assessed in...
Longitudinal cerebral perfusion in presymptomatic genetic frontotemporal dement...
The Genetic Frontotemporal Dementia Initiative (GENFI); Pasternak, Maurice; Mirza, Saira S.; Luciw, Nicholas; Mutsaerts, Henri J. M. M.; Petr, JanINTRODUCTION: Effective longitudinal biomarkers that track disease progression are needed to characterize the presymptomatic phase of genetic frontotemporal dementia (FTD). We investigate the utility of cerebral perfusion as one such biomarker in presymptomatic FTD mutation carriers. METHODS: We investigated longitudinal profiles of cerebral perfusion using arterial spin labeling magnetic resonance imaging in 4...
