Imaging Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration
The term frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) refers to a group of neurodegenerative disorders that target the frontal and temporal lobes. It accounts for approximately 10 % of pathologically confirmed dementias but has been demonstrated to be as prevalent as Alzheimer's disease in patients below the age of 65.

Diminished preparatory physiological responses in frontotemporal lobar degeneration syndromes [PDF]
Researchers typically study physiological responses either after stimulus onset or when the emotional valence of an upcoming stimulus is revealed. Yet, participants may also respond when they are told that an emotional stimulus is about to be presented ...

A 43-kDa TDP-43 species is present in aggregates associated with frontotemporal lobar degeneration. [PDF]
The transactive response DNA-binding protein (TDP-43) is a major component of the abnormal intracellular inclusions that occur in two common neurodegenerative diseases of humans: (1) a subtype of frontotemporal lobar degeneration and (2) amyotrophic ...

Unpicking frontotemporal lobar degeneration [PDF]
Not so long ago, frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) seemed quite simple. Apart from rare variants of Alzheimer's disease and the occasional obscure neurodegenerative disease that could not be classified, FTLD was synonymous with Pick's disease, first described by Arnold Pick (1892) in a series of patients with ‘circumscribed atrophy’ and aphasia.

New Perspective on Parkinsonism in Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration [PDF]
Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) is the second most common type of presenile dementia. Three clinical prototypes have been defined; behavioral variant FTD, semantic dementia, and progressive nonfluent aphasia.

Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration [PDF]
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) is a syndromic diagnosis that encompasses at least three different variants. Imaging modalities are clinically useful in FTLD, although pathology remains the gold standard for definitive diagnosis. To date, four different genes have been identified that account for FTLD.

Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration Without Lobar Atrophy [PDF]
Frontotemporal lobar degeneration with ubiquitin-only-immunoreactive neuronal inclusions (FTLD-U) is the most common form of frontotemporal dementia. Neuronal loss and gliosis in cornu ammonis 1 and the subiculum of the hippocampus are features of hippocampal sclerosis (HpScl), which occurs in many cases of FTLD-U.To determine if there were any ...
