Abstract Progressive atrophy of the maxilla and mandible is not uncommon. It may affect but a section of the bone in partly edentulous patients or it may involve the entire alveolar process if all the teeth have been lost. In some cases, it extends into the bone proper. The mandible, when extensively involved, may fracture from minor trauma.

We studied the incidence of computed tomography evidence of cerebellar atrophy in 20 elderly patients with dementia, 20 age-matched controls, and 40 younger normal subjects. Cerebellar vermian atrophy was present in 6 of 20 demented patients, 7 of 20 elderly controls, and 1 of 40 younger controls. There was no other atrophy of infratentorial structures

Prostate Carcinoma: Atrophy or Not Atrophy That is the Question
European Urology, 2007Recently a review based on a PubMed search [1] and an original article [2] dealing with the possible relationship between proliferative inflammatory prostate atrophy (PIA) and prostate carcinoma (PCa) appeared in this journal. In the review the authors conclude with the prudent statement, ‘‘inflammation may give rise to cells of PIN and may increase ...

Progressive cerebral atrophy in multiple system atrophy
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2002Nine patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA) were studied based on MRI findings of cerebral hemispheric involvement. The age at onset was 56.4+/-8.6 (mean+/-S.D.) years, duration of illness at the first MRI study 2.1+/-1.1 years, duration of illness at the last study 9.7+/-2.6 years, and the follow-up duration 7.6+/-2.3 years.

There is strong evidence that aging muscle atrophy is a result of factors such as poor nutrition, chronic disease, and perhaps most importantly, disuse.

Cerebral atrophy in multiple system atrophy by MRI
Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2000Cranial magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the cerebral areas of 40 patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA) and of 61 age-matched controls were analyzed. The cerebral area of MSA patients was 131. 95+/-15.89 cm(2) (mean+/-S.D.), which was significantly smaller than that of normal controls at 149.01+/-10.93 cm(2 ...

The spinal cord is a clinically eloquent site for the assessment of neurological disorders, particularly multiple sclerosis (MS). After a short historical introduction to atrophy as measured from X-ray computed tomography images, this chapter discusses the merits of spinal cord atrophy, which is assessed using magnetic resonance imaging as a marker of ...
