Atypical Structure of Broca's Area in a Patient with Primary Progressive Atrophy Syndrome at the Onset of Alzheimer's Disease
https://doi.org/10.52667/10.52667/2712-9179-2024-4-1-2-17-9179-2024-4-1-32-40
Abstract
This article presents a clinical case of Alzheimer’s disease with a debut as primary progressive aphasia syndrome. Insufficient use of routine magnetic resonance imaging in this case in the diagnosis of neurodegenerative diseases and the advantage of such additional neuroimaging methods as positron emission tomography, functional magnetic resonance imaging with a scale assessment of atrophic changes. Additional neuroimaging techniques have been shown to significantly improve the early detection of pathological changes in brain structures and to reveal the location of functional areas involved in the neurodegenerative process.
