Microbleeds in the logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundMicrobleeds have been associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), although it is unclear whether they occur in atypical presentations of AD, such as the logopenic variant of primary progressive aphasia (lvPPA). We aimed to assess the presence and clinical correlates of microbleeds in lvPPA.MethodsThirteen lvPPA subjects underwent 3T T2*‐
