Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging studies of the brain in five elderly patients with non-
Alzheimer dementia were compared with those in two groups of nondemented control …

Patchy white-matter lesions occur in the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging brain studies of
20%-30% of neurologically healthy elderly subjects. To determine the frequency of …

A thorough knowledge of the normal changes that occur in the brain with age is critical
before abnormal findings are analyzed. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging improves the …

The distributions of the cerebral gray matter, the white matter, and the intracranial
cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were measured in 14 patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) and in …

• Periventricular white-matter lesions were visualized in the brains of elderly patients being
assessed for possible Alzheimer's disease. The magnitude of these lesions, expressed as …

• In a prospective magnetic resonance imaging and cognitive study of 38 demented patients
and 15 control subjects, 11 of 27 patients with Alzheimer's disease and 8 of 11 patients with …

The most common pathologic disorders in the elderly result in dementia, movement
disorders, and/or focal neurologic deficit. Neuroimaging, particularly magnetic resonance …

The type, frequency, and extent of MR signal abnormalities in Alzheimer's disease and
normal aging are a subject of controversy. With a 1.5-MR unit we studied 12 Alzheimer …

MRI scans of 27 patients with probable Alzheimer's disease (mean age 68.2 years), 31
patients with vascular dementia (mean age 69.9 years) and 18 normal controls (mean age …

• To compare the merits of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and roentgen ray computed
tomography (CT) in assessing patients with dementia, we examined pairs of MR and CT …
