The Participation of Three Brain Tissues in Alzheimer’s disease Diagnosis from Structural MRI
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive and irreversible disease which gradually makes patients unable to do their daily routines. Although the present treatments can not cure the disease completely, its early detection can reduce symptoms and enhance the patients’ life quality. In the current literature, using the grey matter (GM) tissue which is known as an appropriate biomarker is highly c...
متن کاملImpact of White Matter Changes on Clinical Manifestation of Alzheimer’s Disease
Background and Purpose—There have been conflicting results involving the clinical significance of white matter changes in patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We studied the association between the volume of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) on T2-weighted images and cognitive, neurological, and neuropsychiatric symptoms. Methods—The subjects were 76 AD patients who had WMHs but no obviou...

متن کاملNeuropathological Changes in Brain Cortex and Hippocampus in a Rat Model of Alzheimer’s Disease
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with progressive loss of cognitive abilities and memory loss. The aim of this study was to compare neuropathological changes in hippocampus and brain cortex in a rat model of AD. Methods: Adult male Albino Wistar rats (weighing 250-300 g) were used for behavioral and histopathological studies. The rats were randomly assigned t...
متن کاملObservations on cerebral amyloid angiopathy and microvascular pathology in Alzheimer's disease and vascular dementia Haglund, Mattias
Dementia is a state of permanent loss of cognitive function, most commonly affecting the elderly. With a rapidly growing aged population, the spectrum of disorders that lead to dementia is exerting an ever-increasing toll on patients, families and society alike. The most common dementing disorders are Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia. Although Alzheimer’s disease is very common and was...
