Such changes have been uncritically attributed to ischaemia. Binswanger's disease, which is neither Binswanger's nor a disease,'? is invoked with unjustified frequency since the label is seldom supported by pathological data. Such white-m...

Diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and multiple infarct dementia by tomographic imaging of iodine-123 IMP.

Tomographic imaging of the brain was performed using a rotating slant hole collimator and [123I]N-isopropyl p-iodoamphetamine (IMP) in normal subjects (n = 6) and patients with either Alzheimer's disease (n = 5) or multiple infarct dementia (n = 3). Four blinded observers were asked to make a diagnosis from the images. Normal subjects and patients with multiple infarct dementia were correctly i...

Intellectual impairment and cerebral lesions in multiple cerebral infarcts. A clinical-computed tomography study.

The relation between cerebral lesions studied by computed tomography and the dementia syndrome has been evaluated in 40 patients with multi-infarct dementia, in 44 nondemented subjects with multiple infarcts, and in 30 controls matched for age and sex. Our study of the volume of ischemic lesions showed a slightly greater loss of cerebral substance in patients with multi-infarct dementia than in...

Some observations on the spectrum of dementia.

A study was designed to generate epidemiological and clinical data on dementia, in a teaching hospital in India. It was conducted on 124 (94 male and 30 female) elderly patients (aged more than 60 years) presenting with clinical syndrome of dementia (DSM-3). Their age range was 64-78 (mean 65.7 4.1) years. Detailed clinical, biochemical, radiological and electrophysiological evaluation was done...

Characteristics of MR infarcts associated with dementia and cognitive function in the elderly.

BACKGROUND Little information exists on the simultaneous effects of magnetic resonance (MR) infarct characteristics, that may increase the likelihood of dementia or lower cognitive function in community populations. METHODS Participants were 580 community-dwelling individuals from the Chicago Health and Aging Project (CHAP) who underwent detailed clinical evaluation and MR imaging. The associ...
