Decomposing the effect of normal aging and Alzheimer's disease in brain morphological changes via learned aging templates. [PDF]
Alzheimer's Disease and normal aging are both characterized by brain atrophy. The question of whether AD-related brain atrophy represents accelerated aging or a neurodegeneration process distinct from that in normal aging remains unresolved. Moreover, precisely disentangling AD-related brain atrophy from normal aging in a clinical context is complex ...

We report the case of a 44-year-old woman with a one-year history of en coup de sabre morphea and progressive hemifacial atrophy with ipsilateral hemifacial neuralgia, migraine, and contralateral neurologic abnormalities. While rare, Parry-Romberg syndrome typically presents in the first or second decade of life; this patient's case is unusual in that ...
