The Cortical Asymmetry Index for subtyping dementia patients - European Radiology Objectives Frontotemporal dementia (FTD) usually shows more asymmetric atrophy patterns than Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We aim to quantify this asymmetry to differentiate FTD, AD, and FTD subtypes. Met...

📢 Happy to share the last paper of my PhD!

We introduce CAI a cortical asymmetry index:

- Differentiates HC, AD & FTD (incl. phenotypes)

- Identifies 2 FTD clusters (differences NfL) & 2 AD clusters (differences GFAP)

- FTD ⬆️CAI over time
