IC-P-099: MORPHOLOGICAL AND FUNCTIONAL INVESTIGATION OF MEMORY IMPAIRMENT IN ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE: COMBINED FMRI AND VOXEL-BASED MORPHOMETRY STUDY

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia. An enormous number of publications are based on the results of imaging studies. Functional MRI (fMRI) and voxel-based morphometry (VBM) open up new opportunities in study of AD pathogenesis. The purpose of the study was to assess brain atrophy along with functional component of memory impairment. We studied 27 patients with Alzheimer's disease (mean age 69,6±8,9 years) and 22 matched...
