pubmed:abstractText |
Investigations have suggested that frontal lobe abnormalities are a prominent feature of the alcoholic brain, indicated by impaired neuropsychological performance on tests of frontal lobe function and by reduced frontal lobe volume in neuroimaging and neuropathological examinations. White matter compartment volume loss may underlie observed brain shrinkage and cognitive deficits associated with the frontal lobes, although the nature of this change has not been well-characterized.
