Predicting FTLD & AD neuropathology in PPA using hippocampal shape

PI: Wang

Summary:
By using information about specific features of neuromorphological deformity from prior studies and data from preliminary studies of cortical gray matter thinning in PPA subjects, this study proposes to assess the agreement between group classification attained by neuromorphometry and by clinical categorization and to correlate these MRI measures with a nonverbal memory assessment in the same subjects.
