pubmed:abstractText |
Despite striking neuropsychological and behavioural differences between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD), clinical diagnostic criteria failed to discriminate FTD from AD patients. We therefore developed the Middelheim Frontality Score (MFS), a disease-long clinical and behavioural assessment tool that measures frontal lobe features, and set up this prospective study in clinically diagnosed AD and FTD patients to assess discriminatory power and intra- and inter-rater variability.
