Article Synopsis
- Nuclear medicine investigations, particularly PET and SPECT imaging, are crucial in diagnosing dementia by providing functional and molecular brain data that enhance the accuracy of evaluations.
- The collaboration of the Nuclear Medicine Society, Neurological Society, and Thai Medical Physicist Society aims to establish guidelines for effectively integrating nuclear medicine into the diagnosis of neurocognitive disorders.
- These guidelines focus on defining the role of nuclear medicine in dementia diagnosis, helping professionals choose the right procedures, and providing scientific backing for interpreting and reporting findings.
Background: The number of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD) has increased dramatically in Asia.
Objective: To update the demographic characteristics of patients with AD and their informants in eight Asian countries and compare them from 12 years prior.
Methods: The A1-A3 components of the Uniform Dataset (UDS), version 3.
This study aimed to identify the prevalence, clinical and radiographic characteristics, and risk factors for cognitive dysfunction in patients with Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorder (NMOSD). Eighty-three participants who were diagnosed with NMOSD were recruited. Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) and Frontal Assessment Battery (FAB).
