2012, Archives of Medical ResearchCitation Excerpt :CT is also more sensitive than MRI in detecting the presence of calcifications or bony lesions. Moreover, CT/MRI continue to be used clinically to determine ventricular volume in patients with AD (9,10) and in suspected cases of normal pressure hydrocephalus (11). Overall, MRI has higher anatomic resolution and better soft tissue definition and grey-white matter contrast than CT.
Evaluation of early dementia (Mild cognitive impairment)
2010, PET ClinicsCitation Excerpt :[18F] 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (FDG)–PET has long been used to track AD-related brain changes by providing qualitative and quantitative estimates of the cerebral metabolic rate of glucose (CMRglc).26
Feature Extraction and Strategy of Analyzing Structural Neuroimaging in Dementia
2008, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :The indication for imaging was initially to exclude treatable causes of dementia, e.g., tumor. Pretty quickly, though, it became evident that structural changes in the brain were present in patients with dementia, especially dilatation of the ventricular system (De Leon et al., 1980). About a decade later, focus shifted towards quantified hippocampal atrophy on MRI (Seab et al., 1988) and eventually the hippocampus was signaled as an early marker for AD (Scheltens et al., 1992).
